Texas 109 1917 (Texas) (Road Sign) T-Shirt Design
This t-shirt design pays homage to the earliest days of Texas's state highway system. It showcases the simple, yet historically significant, road sign of Texas State Highway 109 as it appeared in 1917.
Artwork and Visual Elements
The artwork replicates the straightforward design of the original road marker. At the top, the word "TEXAS" is prominently displayed in a bold, sans-serif font. Beneath it, the route number "109" is rendered in a matching typeface.
The color scheme is stark and classic: black letters and numbers are set against a pristine white background. This high-contrast palette ensures readability and reflects the functional nature of the original sign, designed to be easily visible to motorists.
Meaning and Symbolism
This design symbolizes the pioneering spirit of early Texas road development. It represents a pivotal moment in the state's transportation history, predating the iconic shield design. The sign itself represents the very first attempts to standardize and designate roadways, laying the groundwork for the modern highway system.
Wearing this design is a nod to the past, a celebration of simplicity, and a declaration of appreciation for the history of Texas.
