Old Texas 68 (Road Sign) T-Shirt: Design Description
This t-shirt design celebrates the history of Texas State Highway 68, presenting a visual journey through its road sign evolution.
1920s: The Texas Outline Shield
The central element of the design is the iconic outline of the state of Texas, rendered in a classic style. Within the white space of the state's outline, the number "68" is prominently displayed, representing the highway itself. Beneath the Texas outline, the word "TEXAS" is printed. This design symbolizes the original designation of SH 68 as part of Texas's early highway system, evoking a sense of heritage and historical significance.
1930s-40s: Circle-in-Square
A second design featured on the tee, reflects the sign style used during the 1930s and 40s. A bold white circle set in a black square is shown, with the number "68" centered in the circle. The word "TEXAS" is written below the square. This element of the design captures a specific period in the highway's history, representing the signage of the time and the growth of Texas's infrastructure.
Post-1948: Modern Rectangular Shield
The third design element of the t-shirt is a white rectangle with a bold black border. The number "68" is at the top, with "TEXAS" displayed below. This is the current, modern representation of the SH 68 road sign. It signifies the ongoing relevance of the highway and its integration into the state's current road network.
Together, these three designs on the t-shirt create a visual timeline of Old Texas 68's signage, a tribute to the road and its historical journey.
