OH-201 1948 (Ohio) (Road Sign) T-Shirt Design
This t-shirt features a faithful representation of the OH-201 route shield, a piece of Ohio's transportation history. The design captures the essence of a vintage road sign, specifically mirroring the style mandated by the Ohio Department of Transportation (ODOT) in 1948.
Visual Elements and Representation
The artwork showcases the iconic shield shape, a hallmark of state route signage from that era. The design’s layout reflects the conventions of the time, with the initials "OH" (or "Ohio") prominently displayed at the top, and the route number "201" positioned below. The font and overall composition adhere to the 1948 Ohio Manual of Uniform Traffic Control Devices (OMUTCD) standards.
The design speaks to the evolution of American highway signage and graphic design. It's a nostalgic nod to mid-20th-century roadways, evoking a sense of history and the open road. The shield itself functions as a recognizable emblem of the route, intended to direct travelers on their journey, in this case, along SR 201.
Meaning and Symbolism
The OH-201 sign, as presented on the tee, stands as a symbol of Ohio's transportation history and the evolution of road design. This design serves as a visual marker of a specific time and place. It suggests a time when road travel was becoming increasingly popular, and signage was becoming standardized across the nation.
