OH-157 1948 (Ohio) (Road Sign) T-Shirt: Design Description
This t-shirt features the iconic OH-157 road sign design as it appeared in 1948, a snapshot of Ohio's mid-20th-century highway history.
Artwork and Visual Elements
The design is centered around a square, white field, representing the standardized look of Ohio state route signs from the mid-1930s to the early 1970s. Dominating the design is a solid black silhouette of the state of Ohio, precisely rendered.
Inside the black silhouette, the route number "157" is prominently displayed in bold, black numerals. This simple yet effective presentation ensures immediate recognition and clarity.
Meaning and Symbolism
The design immediately identifies the wearer as someone with an appreciation for Ohio's transportation history and a connection to the state's heritage. The stark contrast of the black silhouette against the white background creates a bold, recognizable image. The silhouette itself, a familiar shape to Ohioans, represents the state itself. The road number within establishes the specific route, in this case, a key north-south connector in the Cleveland suburbs. It is a symbol of navigation, journey, and the enduring presence of Ohio's road network.
