WIS 152 1949 (Wisconsin) Road Sign T-Shirt: Design Overview
This t-shirt features the iconic road sign design of Wisconsin Highway 152 as it appeared in 1949. The artwork captures the minimalist aesthetic that defined Wisconsin's highway markers in the late 1940s and continues to be used today.
Visual Elements
The design is centered around a stark white square, serving as the backdrop. A thin, elegant black border frames the square, providing definition and structure. The central focus is the number "152," rendered in bold, black numerals. The numerals are centrally aligned, ensuring visual balance and readability.
Meaning and Symbolism
