Illinois 117 (Illinois) Road Sign T-Shirt - Design
This design showcases the iconic Illinois Route 117 road sign, a familiar sight for travelers navigating north-central Illinois. The artwork replicates the official state highway marker, a recognizable symbol of the route and the state's transportation infrastructure.
Visual Elements
The design features a rectangular shield, the standard shape for Illinois route markers. The color scheme is predominantly white, with reflective properties, as found on actual road signs. Across the top, in a clear, bold font, the word "ILLINOIS" is displayed, clearly identifying the state. Below this, the number "117" is prominently displayed, indicating the specific route number. The design adheres to the specifications outlined in the Illinois Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (IMUTCD) and the federal MUTCD guidelines, ensuring accurate representation.
Meaning and Symbolism
The road sign itself acts as a directional tool, communicating information to travelers. This design, therefore, represents a tangible connection to the Illinois highway system and the act of navigation. It symbolizes travel, the journey along a specific route, and the experience of driving through the Illinois landscape. The clean and simple design aesthetic is a familiar visual cue, easily recognizable and associated with the open road.
