North Dakota 47 (Road Sign) T-Shirt: Design Overview
This t-shirt features the iconic road sign design of North Dakota Highway 47 (ND 47), instantly recognizable to anyone familiar with the state's roadways.
The Shape and State Identity
The design utilizes the distinctive heptagonal shape, a seven-sided polygon, that is the defining characteristic of North Dakota's state highway shields. This unique shape immediately identifies the sign as belonging to a North Dakota highway.
Prominent Highway Identification
At the top of the design, the words "NORTH DAKOTA" are clearly displayed, reinforcing the state's identity. The central focus is the number "47," boldly showcasing the specific highway route.
Symbolism and Historical Context
The most striking element of the design is the centered silhouette of a Native American head in profile, displayed in white. This design element, adopted in 1961, adds a layer of cultural and historical significance to the sign. It reflects a connection to the state's heritage and the historical presence of Native American communities in North Dakota. The use of this imagery is consistent with the state's commitment to preserving its historical signage style across its highway system.
