Virginia 142 (Virginia) (Road Sign) T-Shirt - Design Description
This t-shirt features the iconic road sign for Virginia State Route 142 (VA 142). The design is a faithful representation of the official sign, adhering to the Virginia Department of Transportation's specifications for primary state highways.
Artwork and Visual Elements
The core of the design is a white shield, bordered by a crisp black outline. Centered within the shield are the black numerals "142," boldly displayed to ensure clear visibility. The use of a white background serves a dual purpose: it provides a high-contrast backdrop for the numbers and embodies the reflective qualities essential for road signs.
Meaning and Symbolism
The road sign itself acts as the primary symbol. It immediately identifies Virginia State Route 142, a vital thoroughfare in southeastern Virginia. The sign's presence evokes a sense of place, connecting the wearer to the road, the localities it traverses (Petersburg, Dinwiddie County), and the broader Virginia highway system. The design signifies direction, movement, and the journey along this established route, originally designated in 1933.
