I-40 AZ 1957 (Arizona) Road Sign T-Shirt Design
This t-shirt features a faithful reproduction of the original 1957 Interstate 40 (I-40) road sign used in Arizona. The design encapsulates a piece of American highway history, reflecting the early days of the Interstate Highway System.
Classic Design Elements
The artwork replicates the iconic shield shape, a hallmark of Interstate signage. A bold red banner arcs across the top, bearing the word "INTERSTATE" in crisp white lettering. This emphasizes the interstate nature of the road and its connectivity across state lines.
Color and Symbolism
The central element is a prominent white "40" numeral, positioned within a rich blue field. This number directly identifies the highway and serves as a primary visual indicator. The colors are deeply symbolic. Red, white, and blue, the colors of the American flag, represent patriotism and national unity, emphasizing the project's national scope and its role in connecting the country.
Historical Significance
A white border surrounds the entire design, providing contrast and visual clarity. While this design does not include “ARIZONA” at the bottom, it's representative of early shield variations. This T-shirt design embodies a piece of transportation history and celebrates the legacy of the open road.
