OH-249 1920 (Ohio) (Road Sign) T-Shirt: Design
This t-shirt proudly displays a faithful recreation of the original 1920 Ohio State Route 249 road sign. The design captures the essence of early highway signage, a time when Ohio was establishing its nascent state highway system.
Visual Elements
The design features a stark white background, immediately evoking the era's utilitarian aesthetic. Centered on the shirt is the iconic route marker: a black circle, the very heart of the sign's identity.
Above the circle, the word "OHIO" appears in small, understated black letters. This element clearly identifies the origin of the route and provides a sense of officialdom. Inside the central black circle, the bold numeral "249" commands attention, the black numerals standing out against the white background.
Meaning & Symbolism
The design symbolizes a pivotal moment in American history: the dawn of the automobile age and the burgeoning development of modern infrastructure. This sign represents a time of new beginnings and the spirit of exploration.
The clean, straightforward design reflects the practical nature of early road signage. It's a testament to the efficient communication of critical information in a landscape just beginning to adapt to the automobile. This t-shirt is a stylish nod to Ohio's rich history of road building and transportation.
