OH-85 1927 (Ohio) Road Sign T-Shirt - Design
This t-shirt showcases a faithful reproduction of the original OH-85 road sign from 1927, offering a glimpse into early Ohio highway history. The design embodies the simple, utilitarian aesthetic of the 1920s, a time when clarity and directness were paramount in road signage.
Visual Elements
The artwork centers around a clean, square format. A stark white background provides the canvas for the design. At the top, the word "OHIO" appears in bold, black lettering, instantly identifying the state. Beneath, the route number "85" is prominently displayed in large, black numerals, serving as the primary visual focus. A thin horizontal black line often separates "OHIO" from the number, adding a subtle visual break.
Meaning and Symbolism
The design represents a significant era in Ohio’s transportation infrastructure. It symbolizes the state's initial efforts to establish a formalized highway system in 1923. The simplicity of the sign reflects the nascent state of road travel and the straightforward approach to public communication of the time. The bold, unadorned lettering and numbers emphasize the sign's purpose: to clearly and efficiently guide travelers along the designated route. It is a visual testament to the foundational period of Ohio's highway network, offering a sense of nostalgia for a bygone era of motoring.
