Virginia 35 1956 (Virginia) Road Sign T-Shirt Design
This t-shirt showcases a faithful reproduction of the iconic Virginia Route 35 road sign design as it appeared in 1956. The artwork is a direct homage to Virginia's rich transportation history, capturing a specific moment in time when road travel was undergoing significant development.
Design Elements
The central element of the design is the silhouette of the Commonwealth of Virginia itself, a shape instantly recognizable to anyone familiar with the state. This distinctive cutout represents Virginia's commitment to its infrastructure and the importance of its roadways.
The top of the design features the word "VIRGINIA" in bold, black capital letters, clearly identifying the state. This placement emphasizes the state's role in the road's functionality. The bold, centered number "35" signifies the specific route, boldly displayed for clear identification by drivers.
A thin black border carefully follows the outline of the state, defining the shape and providing visual clarity. The contrast between the white background and black text and border ensures high visibility and legibility.
Meaning and Symbolism
The design speaks to a sense of nostalgia, evoking the era of classic American road trips. The use of the Virginia state outline and the specific design details of the 1956 road sign offer a connection to the state's heritage and its historical investment in its transportation network.
The black and white color scheme is stark and functional, mirroring the practical purpose of the road sign itself. This design is a tribute to a moment in time when simplicity and clarity were paramount in the design of public signage.
