PR Old 1 (Puerto Rico) Road Sign T-Shirt: Design Description
This t-shirt showcases the iconic design of the "PR old 1" road sign, a piece of Puerto Rican history frozen in time. The artwork meticulously recreates the pre-1999 highway shield style, a visual emblem of the island's road system before its standardization.
Artwork Elements
The design features a square layout, setting it apart from typical U.S. interstate markers. The top third of the square is dominated by an outline map of the Island of Puerto Rico, rendered with precise detail. The words "Puerto Rico" are boldly inscribed within the map, clearly identifying the territory.
The lower two-thirds of the sign presents a striking contrast: a white-on-black half-circle. Nestled within this half-circle, the route number "1" is prominently displayed, designating the main highway that connects Ponce to San Juan.
Meaning and Symbolism
The "PR old 1" road sign represents a bygone era of Puerto Rican infrastructure. The design symbolizes the island's unique identity and its approach to marking its roadways before the adoption of U.S.-style signage. The inclusion of the island's outline within the sign emphasizes its geographical location and pride.
This design serves as a visual reminder of Puerto Rico's past and an appreciation for road sign art and history.
