PA-155 1948 (Pennsylvania) Road Sign T-Shirt: Design Overview
This t-shirt features a striking design inspired by the historic road signs of Pennsylvania, specifically the PA-155 route marker from 1948. The artwork celebrates a bygone era of highway signage.
The Iconic Keystone
The central element of the design is the distinctive “keystone” shape. This shape is a direct reference to Pennsylvania's nickname, "The Keystone State," symbolizing its vital role as a foundational state. The keystone outline immediately identifies the subject matter as a Pennsylvania route marker.
Vintage Route Marker Details
Within the keystone, the design precisely replicates the layout of the 1948 route marker. At the top, the abbreviation “PENNA” is prominently displayed, representing the state of Pennsylvania. Below this, and the focal point of the sign, is the route number: “155.” The font and layout meticulously mirror the style used in Pennsylvania during that period.
A Nostalgic Aesthetic
The design evokes a sense of nostalgia for classic American road trips and the iconic signage that guided travelers through the state. It is a visual tribute to the historical design elements used on Pennsylvania highways during the mid-20th century, bringing a touch of vintage charm to the artwork.
