Virginia 117 1980 (Road Sign) T-Shirt Design

This t-shirt showcases a piece of Virginia's transportation history: the vintage road sign for Virginia State Route 117. The design centers around the iconic route marker shield, a familiar sight for anyone who has traveled through the Roanoke area.

Design Elements

The artwork is a faithful representation of the 1980s-era sign, featuring a white silhouette, the route number "117" prominently displayed against a simple background. This minimalist design emphasizes clarity and function, echoing the original purpose of the sign: to guide travelers and identify the highway.

Meaning and Symbolism

Beyond its literal function, the design holds a certain nostalgic appeal. It represents a connection to the past, a time when road signs had a classic, utilitarian aesthetic. For locals, it's a nod to Peters Creek Road, a well-known route connecting Roanoke and Hollins. The simplicity of the sign reflects the straightforward nature of the road itself, a direct line of travel.
