NY-48A (New York) (Road Sign) T-Shirt Design
This t-shirt design pays homage to a forgotten piece of New York's transportation history: NY-48A. The artwork focuses solely on the iconic road sign that would have marked this now-defunct state route.
Classic Road Sign Representation
The design faithfully recreates the pre-1948 New York State Route shield. A bold white circle forms the core of the design, providing a clean and easily recognizable background. Within this circle, the number “48A” is prominently displayed in a striking black font. This number clearly identifies the specific road designation.
Symbolic Outline
Encircling the white circle and black numbers is a solid black outline. This outline serves not only to contain the design, but also to frame the shield and provide a sense of authority and permanence. It is a visual representation of the state's control and direction over its roadways at the time.
Historical Significance
The entire design evokes nostalgia for a bygone era of road travel, reminding us of the local connectors that were essential before modern highway improvements. The use of the older shield design instantly transports the viewer back to the 1930s–early 1940s, offering a glimpse into the past.
