OH-9 1948 (Ohio) Road Sign T-Shirt: Design Description
This t-shirt features a striking design inspired by the iconic road signs of Ohio from the mid-20th century, specifically the year 1948. The artwork is a faithful representation of the "State Route marker" used during that era.
Visual Elements & Symbolism
The central element of the design is a white silhouette of the State of Ohio, a distinctive shape that immediately identifies the route as being within the state. Imprinted upon this white shape is the bold black numeral "9," representing State Route 9 in Ohio.
The entire Ohio silhouette and numeral are set against a solid black square or rectangular background. This creates a high-contrast visual effect, ensuring that the sign's information is easily readable and attention-grabbing. The combination of the Ohio state shape and the route number serves as an immediate visual cue for drivers, indicating a state-maintained route.
The design adheres to the standard marker code (M1-5) used by the Ohio state highway authorities. It is a nostalgic representation of a bygone era in road signage, a time when simplicity and clear communication were paramount. The t-shirt design celebrates this classic approach to public signage.
