N-1C 1926 (Nebraska) Road Sign T-Shirt Design
This t-shirt features a faithful recreation of the original 1926 N-1C Nebraska road sign. The design pays homage to Nebraska's pioneering spirit and its early highway system.
Iconic Design Elements
The shirt showcases the classic rectangular trapezoid shape, wider at the top and narrowing towards the bottom, a design characteristic of Nebraska highway shields from the era. At the top, the bold, block letter word "NEBRASKA" declares the state's presence.
Covered Wagon Emblem
Central to the design is the iconic covered wagon with oxen, the official symbol of Nebraska state highways. This emblem embodies the state's heritage, evoking images of westward expansion and the trails blazed by early settlers. The wagon represents the journeys and connections that the Nebraska road system aimed to provide.
Auxiliary Route Designation
Below the covered wagon, the designation "1C" clearly indicates that this route served as an auxiliary to the primary N-1 highway. The "C" distinguishes this specific route from other auxiliary pathways, signifying its unique place in the network of early Nebraska highways.
Color Scheme
The design utilizes a classic color scheme of black text and imagery set against a crisp white background. This high-contrast palette ensures clear visibility and recalls the straightforward, functional aesthetic of the original road sign.
