Louisiana 3197 Road Sign T-Shirt - Design
This t-shirt features the iconic road sign for Louisiana Highway 3197, specifically rendered in the style adopted around 2008. The design centers around the distinctive highway shield, a visual emblem of the state's roadways.
Artwork and Visual Elements
The artwork showcases a starkly contrasted design: a black background, a prominent white silhouette representing the state of Louisiana, and the route number "3197" rendered in crisp, black lettering. This modern black-and-white aesthetic replaced the older green and white highway markers, signifying a shift in Louisiana's road signage style around 2008. The sign itself doesn't feature an outer border.
Meaning and Symbolism
The sign represents the short stretch of Louisiana Highway 3197, a state-maintained road in Terrebonne Parish, near Houma. The design's simplicity and the prominent display of the route number give it a clear and direct message: it marks and identifies a specific section of Louisiana's highway system. The design also carries a touch of historical interest, as LA 3197 represents a portion of the original alignment of US 90 through the area.
The "2008" style is a visual representation of Louisiana's road infrastructure design at that time, making it a design element connected to a specific era. This design, like all road signs, serves the practical function of navigation while also possessing a degree of cultural significance to those interested in road and highway history.
