New Mexico 143 (Road Sign) T-Shirt: Design Description
This t-shirt showcases the iconic road sign for New Mexico State Road 143, offering a distinctive and instantly recognizable design.
Artwork and Visual Elements
The core of the design is the official New Mexico state highway shield. This shield features the prominent Zia sun symbol, a stylized depiction of the sun, taken directly from the New Mexico state flag. The sun, a bright red symbol, is centered within a white circular field.
Encasing the sun and its circular backdrop is a black square. Within this shield, the number "143" is prominently displayed, using a clear and legible font, indicating the specific route number of the road.
Meaning and Symbolism
The design represents New Mexico State Road 143, also known as Stirrup Road. The Zia sun symbol is deeply rooted in the state's Native American heritage, and is a widely recognized symbol of New Mexico itself.
The road sign design indicates the user is traveling on a state highway, and is a beacon for those exploring the Deming area or heading toward Rockhound State Park.
