MO-62 1926 (Missouri) Road Sign T-Shirt - Design Description
This t-shirt features a striking design: the iconic road sign for Missouri State Highway Route 62, as it was designated in the year 1926. The artwork is a faithful representation of the original sign, capturing the essence of early highway design in Missouri.
Visual Elements
The design adheres to the typical format of state route markers from that era. At the top, the word "MISSOURI" is prominently displayed in a classic, bold font, immediately identifying the state. Below this, a large, clear numeral "62" commands attention, the numerical designation of the route.
Meaning and Symbolism
The sign itself is a portal to the past. It symbolizes the dawn of standardized highway systems in America and the transition period when states, including Missouri, were adapting to the newly established U.S. Highway system. The "1926" designation is especially significant. It reflects the renumbering processes that occurred during the establishment of the U.S. Highway System to prevent numbering conflicts.
This particular route marker has a special historical context, as “62” was one of the numbers that conflicted with those used by the new U.S. Highway designations. It represents an era of change and growth within the state's transportation infrastructure.
The artwork, therefore, isn't just a design; it's a piece of history. It offers a visual reminder of the evolution of American roadways, the significance of route numbering, and the early days of standardized highway signage.
