I-70 MD 1957 (Maryland) Road Sign T-Shirt - Design
Step back in time with this striking design, a wearable tribute to the original I-70 highway shields of Maryland, circa 1957. The artwork replicates the iconic look that guided early motorists along the newly constructed Interstate system.
A Classic Interstate Design
At the heart of the design is the traditional cutout shield shape, instantly recognizable to anyone familiar with American highway signage. The top banner boldly displays the word "INTERSTATE" in crisp white letters against a vibrant red backdrop. This is more than just a label; it's a declaration of a new era in transportation, symbolizing the ambition and nationwide connectivity of the Interstate system.
The Blue Heart of the Route
Dominating the shield's center is the distinctive blue field, home to the large white "70" numerals. These numbers are a direct representation of Interstate 70, the road that once connected Hagerstown to Baltimore, ushering in the ease of travel that defines the state.
A Timeless Symbol
A clean white border frames the shield, providing a clear definition and enhancing its visibility, just as it would on the roadside. The simplicity and clarity of the design reflect the focus of function over form, which was typical of the era, communicating the route's name and purpose. Whether or not “MARYLAND” is included, this sign captures a moment in American history, marking the transformation of travel.
