I-82 PA 1957 (Pennsylvania) Road Sign Sticker - Design Overview

This vinyl kiss-cut decal recreates the envisioned look of a 1957 Interstate road sign for I-82 in Pennsylvania. The design is a vibrant homage to the original aesthetic of the U.S. Interstate Highway System.

A Classic Interstate Shield

The central element is the iconic cutout Interstate shield, a symbol of national connectivity and modern transportation. This version reflects the 1957 design specifications for Pennsylvania, showcasing the era's design principles.

Color and Text

The sign is dominated by a bold color scheme. A red banner at the top proudly displays "INTERSTATE" in crisp white letters. Beneath, a large field of blue serves as the backdrop for the route number, "82," rendered in striking white numerals. This color combination is a deliberate choice: red and blue are the colors of the American flag, signifying the nationwide scope and federal support of the Interstate system. The white lettering provides high contrast, ensuring optimal visibility.

Pennsylvania Inclusion

Notably, the design includes "PENNSYLVANIA" displayed in white text. This addition speaks to the local identity and the state's role in the national highway network. Though never realized on an actual road, the sign represents a plan, a dream, and a moment in transportation history.

Historical Significance

This design represents a road that never existed, making it a unique piece of transportation ephemera. It represents the original vision for the Interstate system in Pennsylvania, offering a glimpse into what might have been. The sticker becomes a symbol of the ambitious planning and forward-thinking spirit that characterized the early days of America’s highway infrastructure.

Glossy kiss-cut vinyl stickers made for smooth, indoor surfaces — laptops, journals, mirrors, and other finished items. Crisp edges, vivid color, strong hold, and not waterproof.

What “kiss-cut” means: the blade cuts the vinyl layer into the exact shape while leaving the backing liner whole, so pieces separate cleanly and lift off the sheet without tearing. It’s the neatest way to produce shaped stickers and multi-piece sheets.

  • Material: reliable vinyl face with a permanent acrylic adhesive formulated for smooth, non-porous surfaces.
  • Finish: glossy surface that enhances contrast and depth without feeling overly reflective.
  • Printing: eco-solvent inks provide dense color and crisp detail for fine lines and gradients.
  • Use case: intended for indoor environments only — not waterproof. Not recommended for continuous exposure to moisture or dishwashing.
  • Application friendly: easy-peel backing and a liner that releases cleanly to help reduce bubbles and misfeeds during placement.

These stickers perform best on smooth, dust-free surfaces — think laptop lids, sealed notebooks, glass, mirrors, finished shelving and lockers. They’ll stick well where the surface is flat and clean; avoid rough wood, silicone, fabric, and heavily textured paint.

  1. Clean: remove dust and oils with a lint-free cloth. For stubborn grime, use a mild soap and water rinse; let the area dry completely.
  2. Align: peel a corner, position carefully, then press the center down first.
  3. Smooth: work outward from the center with a soft card or a thumb to push air out and ensure the edges set down firmly.

Tip: give the adhesive 24 hours to fully settle before heavy handling. These are not designed for outdoor or wet conditions.

  • Gently dust with a soft, dry cloth, moving from the center outward to avoid scratching the gloss.
  • For light marks, a barely damp microfiber will lift residue — blot, don’t scrub, and dry right away.
  • Avoid bleach, solvents, abrasive pads, and steam; moisture or harsh chemicals can lift edges and fade inks.

Reminder: these stickers are not waterproof. Keep them away from sinks, outdoor exposure, and dishwasher cycles to maintain adhesion and finish.

Sizes are measured across the sticker’s longest side. For example, a 3″ sticker is 3 inches across its largest dimension (height or width, depending on the shape).

The kiss-cut follows the sticker’s outline for a tidy border; complex shapes can show small variances, but the advertised measurement refers to the maximum edge-to-edge length.
