This t-shirt features a striking design inspired by the classic U.S. Highway 231 road signs as they appeared in Florida during 1948. The artwork immediately evokes a sense of vintage Americana and the open road.

This visual style speaks to a time when functionality and clear communication were paramount. The sign’s presence represents a journey through the Florida Panhandle, connecting communities and offering a visual connection to the past.
