Nevada 490 (Nevada) (Road Sign) T-Shirt: Design Description
This t-shirt showcases the instantly recognizable design of the modern Nevada State Route 490 (SR 490) road sign. It faithfully replicates the simple, yet functional, aesthetic of Nevada's highway shields.
Visual Elements
The artwork is a stark contrast of black and white, reflecting the sign's minimalist design. A crisp white rectangular shape forms the backdrop, framed by a thin, black border. Centered within this rectangle are the bold, black digits "490," representing the specific highway number.
Above the numerical designation, the word "NEVADA" is elegantly rendered in small, black, uppercase text, clearly identifying the state that maintains the route.
Meaning and Symbolism
The design represents a connection to Nevada's infrastructure and its road network. SR 490, although a minor route, serves as a crucial access point in Lincoln County, linking U.S. 93 to the High Desert State Prison near Pioche. Therefore, the shirt symbolizes the essential function of state roads in connecting communities and facilitating essential services.
The design's simplicity reflects Nevada's unique approach to highway signage – a style that has remained consistent since the mid-1970s. This uniformity embodies a sense of practicality and efficiency, hallmarks of the state's transportation infrastructure.
