Old Texas 70 (Texas) (Road Sign) T-Shirt

Design Overview

This t-shirt showcases the evolution of road sign design for Old Texas State Highway 70 (SH 70). The artwork cleverly integrates three distinct sign styles, representing different eras in Texas history.

Sign Styles and Symbolism

The design prominently features the iconic "Texas outline" shield from the 1920s. This design symbolizes the road's initial designation and reflects the early days of automotive travel in Texas. The black outline of the state, with the bold "70" and "TEXAS" lettering, immediately identifies the highway and its location.

Next, a representation of the "circle-in-square" shield from the 1930s-40s is included. This design represents a period of standardization and growth for Texas's highway system. The simplicity of the white circle with the black number conveys a sense of directness and efficiency, common in mid-century American design.

Finally, the shirt incorporates the modern rectangular shield, still in use today. This represents the enduring presence of SH 70 and its role in connecting Texas communities. The clean lines and clear typography embody the practical function of modern road signage.

Overall Impression

By combining these three sign styles, the design provides a visual journey through the history of SH 70 and the evolving character of Texas transportation. It's a tribute to the state's heritage and a nod to the enduring significance of the open road.
