WV-50 1922 (Virginia) T-Shirt: Design Description
This t-shirt features a historically accurate graphic representing the concept of the 1922 West Virginia Route 50, albeit with an intentional acknowledgment of a conceptual "Virginia" element (as the route ultimately reached Virginia later on).
Artwork and Visual Elements
The central design element is a rectangular sign, mirroring the historical style of early 1922 West Virginia road markers. The sign displays the text "W VA 50" in a bold, period-appropriate sans-serif font. The "W VA" is placed above the number "50" on a single line. The lettering is rendered in a classic, easy-to-read style, and the color scheme likely involves a combination of black text on a light background to replicate the style used at the time.
Meaning and Symbolism
The design’s symbolism centers around the genesis of a pivotal route. "W VA 50" denotes the original designation of what would later become a portion of US Route 50. The inclusion of “Virginia” in the title hints at the route's eventual journey and significance of the road's extension to the adjacent state. The vintage sign design evokes a sense of nostalgia, commemorating a bygone era of highway travel and early road-building efforts in West Virginia and the later collaboration with Virginia.
