Virginia 14 1918 (Virginia) Road Sign T-Shirt - Design
This t-shirt design pays homage to the very beginning of numbered highways in the Commonwealth of Virginia. It captures the essence of the original Route 14 road sign, as it appeared in 1918, a time when simplicity and functionality reigned supreme in road signage.
Artwork
The design features a stark white rectangular plate, mirroring the basic form of the first Route 14 signs. Dominating the center is the bold, black number "14," rendered in a classic block style font, reflecting the era's utilitarian aesthetic. Above the number, the word "VIRGINIA" is present in a smaller, similarly black font, identifying the state which originally implemented the numbering system.
Meaning and Symbolism
The design represents the birth of numbered highways in Virginia. It's a visual nod to a pivotal moment in transportation history, when the state began to systematize its road network. The simplicity of the sign reflects the early days of automotive travel and the focus on basic navigation. It symbolizes a time of innovation, expansion, and the beginning of a connected road system that would transform the Commonwealth.
