OH-106 1927 (Ohio) (Road Sign) T-Shirt: Design Description
This t-shirt showcases a faithful reproduction of the original OH-106 road sign as it appeared in 1927, a piece of Ohio's early highway history. The design adheres strictly to the first-generation style of Ohio's numbered highway markers.
Visual Elements and Representation
The artwork presents a simple, yet iconic, design. The background is a clean, stark white, providing a contrasting canvas for the black lettering. Across the top, in bold, black block letters, the word "OHIO" proclaims the sign's origin.
Centered below "OHIO", the number "106" is prominently displayed in large, black numerals. A thin, horizontal black line might or might not divide the "OHIO" text from the number, reflecting a common stylistic choice of the era. The clear and direct presentation reflects the practical design philosophy of the time: easily readable and quickly identifiable.
Meaning and Symbolism
The OH-106 sign represents a specific moment in Ohio's transportation history. It symbolizes the state's initial efforts to establish a standardized highway system and the practical, straightforward approach to public signage of the 1920s. The sign signifies the route itself, connecting the towns of Wapakoneta and Uniopolis toward Lima, providing a visual link to the development of Ohio's infrastructure and the evolution of its road network. It serves as a tangible connection to the past, reminding us of the foundational steps in the building of the modern highway system.
