MN-20 1920 (Minnesota) (Road Sign) T-Shirt: Design Description
This t-shirt showcases a design inspired by the historic 1920s road signage of Minnesota, specifically focusing on Minnesota Trunk Highway 20 (MN-20).
Visual Elements and Representation
The core of the design is a faithful recreation of the 1920s-era Minnesota highway route marker. The design prominently features a yellow field, the background color used for early standardized signage. Centered on the yellow field is a black circle encircling a black star. Within the star, the number "20" is displayed, representing the designated route number for Minnesota Trunk Highway 20.
Meaning and Symbolism
The design serves as a visual homage to the early days of standardized highway signage in Minnesota, a period marked by the establishment of a state-wide network of numbered trunk highways in 1920. The "1920" in the design’s title highlights the historical context, the inception year of the route and its associated signage style. The yellow field and the star-and-number configuration are distinctly vintage, signaling a design era predating the modern blue and gold markers of Minnesota highways.
The design, therefore, is a representation of MN-20 in the early style (c.1920s) of Minnesota's highway signage.
