PA-98 1948 (Pennsylvania) Road Sign T-Shirt - Design
This t-shirt showcases a design inspired by the classic PA-98 road sign from Pennsylvania, specifically emulating the style used around 1948. The artwork is a faithful reproduction of this iconic highway marker.
Design Elements and Meaning
The central element is the keystone shape, a distinctive trapezoidal form. This shape is a direct reference to Pennsylvania's nickname, "The Keystone State," symbolizing the state's historical and geographical significance.
Within the keystone, the numerals "98" are prominently displayed, representing Pennsylvania Route 98, a real state highway in western Pennsylvania. The year "1948" is subtly incorporated into the design, marking the specific era of the sign's original style.
The design utilizes fonts that were standard at the time, adhering to a visual language that defined Pennsylvania road signs from that period. The entire composition evokes a sense of nostalgia for a time when road signs had a specific visual identity and reflected the state's pride.
The overall design pays homage to a piece of American transportation history, celebrating the heritage of Pennsylvania's road system with a design that is both historically accurate and visually striking.
