Michigan 573 Marquette County (Road Sign) T-Shirt: Design Description
This t-shirt showcases the distinctive design of the Michigan 573 road sign found in Marquette County, Michigan's Upper Peninsula. The artwork immediately identifies this as a County-Designated Highway (CDH) route, a crucial detail for anyone navigating the area.
Visual Elements and Representation
The core of the design is the CDH road sign, featuring a striking color scheme. A bold blue square forms the background, providing a solid foundation for the central graphic. Within this square, a gold (yellow) pentagon takes center stage, its shape immediately signaling the sign's non-state highway designation.
Inside the gold pentagon, the number "573" is prominently displayed, also in gold. This number is not arbitrary; it represents the specific County Road (CR) 573, which connects M-35 in Gwinn to M-553 near Sands Township. The clear and simple presentation ensures easy recognition and embodies the sign's purpose: to guide travelers on their journey.
Meaning and Symbolism
The design's symbolism stems from its practical function. The sign represents a secondary route, a CDH, offering a connection through the scenic landscapes of central Marquette County. The color choices and shapes are deliberate, differentiating this road from the major state and federal highways. The bold blue field evokes a sense of reliability and clarity, while the gold pentagon and lettering suggest importance and provide instant visual recognition. The placement of the sign on clothing allows for the wearer to proudly display their association with a particular region and road, and possibly even the enjoyment of a hidden road.
