OH-298 1967 (Ohio) (Road Sign) T-Shirt: Design Description
This t-shirt features a faithful reproduction of the OH-298 road sign as it appeared in Ohio in 1967. The design captures the essence of a bygone era in road signage, reflecting the standardized aesthetic of the time.
Design Elements
The central element is the iconic silhouette of the state of Ohio, rendered in a crisp white. This instantly recognizable shape provides the primary visual identifier. Contrasting against the white, the interior background of the Ohio shape is filled with solid black, creating a bold and impactful visual contrast.
Positioned centrally within the white Ohio outline are the black numerals "298". The font is bold and clear, ensuring high legibility. This number indicates the specific state route, imbuing the design with historical and geographical significance.
The entire composition is framed within a square panel, outlined in white. This square format, coupled with the bold numbering and color scheme, is characteristic of the 1967 Ohio Manual of Uniform Traffic Control Devices (OMUTCD). It symbolizes a commitment to standardization and efficiency in road communication.
Meaning and Symbolism
The design of the OH-298 sign is more than just an indicator of a specific road; it represents a moment in time. It symbolizes the infrastructure and transportation network of Ohio in 1967, and the way in which the state was connected through its roads. This artwork pays homage to the state's rich history of road signage.
