Virginia 108 1980 (Virginia) (Road Sign) T-Shirt: Design Description
This t-shirt design showcases the iconic road sign for Virginia Route 108 as it appeared in 1980. The artwork directly replicates the official highway marker used to guide motorists along this specific route.
Visual Elements and Representation
The central element is the outline of the state of Virginia, a shape instantly recognizable to anyone familiar with the Commonwealth. This shape acts as the shield for the route designation. Within the outline, the design maintains the white background, the thin black border and black lettering.
At the top of the shield, the word "VIRGINIA" is printed in bold, uppercase black letters, echoing the standard design guidelines of the era. Beneath this, centered within the state outline, the bold numeral "108" clearly identifies the specific route. This use of standardized FHWA Series fonts further ensures legibility and adherence to federal standards.
Meaning and Symbolism
The design represents the official iconography of Virginia transportation and its history. The state-outline shield is the definitive visual identifier for the state's highways, signifying the route's official status within the Virginia road network. The specific number “108” denotes a path. Therefore, the shirt evokes a sense of journey, place, and the visual language of American road travel in the late 20th century, specifically the year 1980.
