MUTCD-CA SR49 (California) Road Sign T-Shirt - Design
This t-shirt features the iconic visual identity of California State Route 49, as defined by the Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (MUTCD) for California. The design prominently displays the state's distinctive highway route marker.
The Golden Chain Highway Shield
At the heart of the design is the spade-shaped shield, a hallmark of California state route signage. The shield's clean lines and bold geometry are immediately recognizable to anyone familiar with California roadways. Its shape, and the color palette, have a strong association with the state's transportation infrastructure.
Color and Symbolism
The color scheme is classic and functional. A crisp white background provides a contrasting backdrop, making the black outline and central numeral "49" highly visible. This color pairing facilitates quick and easy identification on the road. The black represents clear communication and reinforces the sign's purpose: to guide and inform drivers.
Route Identification
The large, central "49" immediately indicates the designated route number. This numerical display is crucial for navigation and route recognition. Route 49, also known as the Golden Chain Highway, connects many historic Gold Rush towns through the scenic Sierra Nevada foothills.
