OH-138 1967 (Ohio) (Road Sign) T-Shirt: Design Description
A Classic Ohio Marker
This t-shirt features the iconic design of the OH-138 road sign as it appeared in 1967, a symbol of Ohio's highway system during the mid-20th century. The artwork captures a piece of Ohio's transportation history, rendered in a clean and recognizable aesthetic.
Design Elements
The design is centered around a square field, a characteristic shape of the original road sign. The background is a stark white, providing a contrasting canvas for the primary visual element: the silhouette of the state of Ohio.
The Silhouette and Numerals
The state of Ohio is depicted in solid black, a bold graphic representation of the state's outline. Inside the silhouette, the route number "138" is prominently displayed in bold black numerals. This placement of the number within the state's boundaries is a key design element, unifying the route designation with the geographical representation.
Meaning and Symbolism
The design represents the specific route, State Route 138, and evokes the era of mid-century highway travel in Ohio. The use of the Ohio silhouette is inherently symbolic, associating the route with the state itself. The simplicity of the design, with its bold colors and clear lines, speaks to the utilitarian yet memorable style of roadside signage of the time.
