Texas 6-P (Texas) (Road Sign) T-Shirt: Design Description
This t-shirt features a design celebrating a piece of Texas transportation history: the short-lived State Highway 6-P. The artwork harks back to the early days of Texas road signage, offering two distinct visual representations.
Era 1: 1917 - Early 1930s
The first design option evokes the earliest signage style. It presents a bold, black silhouette of the state of Texas. Centered within this familiar shape, the designation “6-P” is prominently displayed, using a clear and readable font. This design represents the historical context of the highway, rooted in the original 1917 Texas highway system.
Era 2: 1935+
The second design showcases a simplified, later-era marker. A clean white square forms the background. At the top, the word "TEXAS" is printed in bold, black capital letters. Beneath this, the designation "6-P" is rendered in a large, clear black font. This design represents the evolution of road signage, streamlining the information for drivers while still emphasizing its importance as a key route.
Symbolism
Both designs act as a tribute to an often-overlooked era of Texas infrastructure. The signs are visual nods to a time before Farm-to-Market roads, representing a temporary connection that was essential in ensuring that small Texan communities were linked to the larger state highway system. The t-shirt itself becomes a wearable symbol of Texas history, reminding us of the evolving nature of roads and the communities they connect.
