Texas 2C 1917 (Texas) (Road Sign) T-Shirt - Design
This t-shirt design pays homage to the very beginnings of the Texas highway system, specifically the era of 1917. It features a faithful recreation of the original Texas State Highway 2C road sign, a testament to the early, utilitarian style of road marking.
A Slice of Texas History
The artwork centers on a stark, minimalist design, reflecting the practicality of the time. The shape is a simple white rectangle, mirroring the original metal or wood road markers used in Texas in 1917. The design captures the essence of the Texas landscape before the iconic Texas-shaped cutout.
Bold Simplicity
The visual elements are defined by a bold, black-and-white aesthetic. At the top of the rectangle, the word "TEXAS" appears in a prominent, uppercase font, clearly establishing the state. Below this, in equally bold black letters and numbers, is the route designation: "2C". This no-frills presentation encapsulates the direct and functional nature of the early highway signage.
Symbolism
The design represents a significant piece of Texan history, symbolizing the early development of the state's transportation infrastructure and the pioneering spirit of the era. The absence of elaborate borders or iconic shapes emphasizes the raw functionality of the highway system's origins. It's a bold statement of Texas pride and a connection to the state's heritage.
