PA-291 1948 (Pennsylvania) (Road Sign) T-Shirt: Design Description
This t-shirt features a striking design inspired by the iconic PA-291 road sign from Pennsylvania, specifically emulating the style used around 1948.
The Keystone Symbol
At the heart of the design is a keystone-shaped shield. This distinctive shape immediately identifies the sign as belonging to the state of Pennsylvania, which is known as the "Keystone State." The keystone represents the central and pivotal role the state played in the formation of the United States.
Vintage Route Marker
The design faithfully recreates the road sign's key elements. The number "291" is prominently displayed, representing Pennsylvania Route 291. The lettering on this design would use the new federal standard font developed just after World War II, a detail which adds to its period accuracy.
Nostalgia and History
The artwork evokes a sense of nostalgia, recalling a time when these signs were common on Pennsylvania roadways. The design's focus on the route marker celebrates a piece of transportation history and a tangible link to a specific era.
