WV-11 1922 (Road Sign) T-Shirt: Design Description
This t-shirt features a historically accurate recreation of the WV-11 road sign from 1922, representing the early days of state-designated roads in West Virginia. Before the standardization of U.S. highway systems, West Virginia used its own numbering system for its state roads.
Artwork and Visual Elements
The design prominently displays a simple, yet iconic, black-on-white road sign. The shape is a classic square or rectangle, true to the era's utilitarian sign designs. The text, rendered in a bold, clean sans-serif font, clearly states "W. VA." above the route number "11" and the words “STATE ROAD”. A simple black border frames the entire design, providing visual definition.
Meaning and Symbolism
The WV-11 sign is a representation of West Virginia's early transportation infrastructure, a pre-U.S. highway era artifact. It symbolizes the state's pioneering efforts in road construction and the evolution of transportation networks. The sign itself represents a moment in time, before standardization, when each state had its unique approach to marking routes.
