OH-226 1948 (Ohio) Road Sign - Design Description
This design pays homage to a piece of Ohio's transportation history, specifically referencing the visual identity of the OH-226 route markers. While the original OH-226 sign was retired by 1927, this design represents a hypothetical 1948 version of the same route's sign, imagined with a slightly later design aesthetic that was not actually adopted.
Artwork and Visual Elements
The central element is the iconic shape of the state of Ohio, rendered in a solid, contrasting color. Inside the outline, the route number "226" is prominently displayed. The font choice and number placement reflect the design standards and graphic style that were being used in the late 1940s for road signage.
Meaning and Symbolism
The design immediately identifies the sign as relating to the state of Ohio. The "226" number specifically designates a particular state route. The overall aesthetic is one of practicality and clarity, reflecting the purpose of road signage: to quickly and effectively convey information to drivers. The use of clear typography and contrasting colors is a key feature in the 1940s design for the readability and impact of the message, ensuring it's easily recognizable from a distance and in various lighting conditions.
