Indiana 220 1955 (Road Sign) T-Shirt: Design Overview
This t-shirt showcases a historically accurate reproduction of the 1955 Indiana State Road 220 road sign. The design captures a specific moment in Indiana's transportation history, representing a short-lived state-maintained route in Wells County.
Visual Elements
The design faithfully recreates the iconic appearance of the sign. It features the standard white shield outline, a distinctive shape unique to Indiana road signage of the era. The words "INDIANA" are displayed prominently above the route number, rendered in a bold, classic font. The route number, "220," is centered beneath the state name in a similarly bold, easily readable style.
Meaning and Symbolism
The road sign design is symbolic of a bygone era. It represents the early years of Indiana's highway system, when smaller, connecting routes like SR 220 were common. The design evokes a sense of nostalgia for those who remember these older road signs and the rural landscapes they marked. It serves as a visual reminder of the evolution of the state's transportation infrastructure.
The sign signifies the connection of the small community of Petroleum to the broader state highway system. It represents access, connectivity, and the state's efforts to facilitate travel and commerce throughout the region.
