Iowa 33 (1926) Road Sign - Decal Design

This sticker captures the essence of a bygone era in Iowa's transportation history, faithfully recreating the 1926 Iowa Highway 33 road sign. The design is a direct representation of Iowa's original primary highway system markers.

Design Elements

The artwork centers around a classic circular shape, a standard design element used by the Iowa Department of Transportation at the time. At the top, the bold capital letters "IOWA" arc gracefully, establishing the sign's location and identity. Beneath, the prominent number "33" is displayed, marking the specific route. The simple, uncluttered layout ensures high visibility and easy readability, essential for quick identification on the open road.

Representation and Symbolism

The Iowa 33 sign symbolizes the modernization of Iowa's roadways and the transition from a patchwork system to a standardized, organized network. The circular form and clear lettering represent a unified approach to road navigation, making travel easier and safer for all. It stands as a visual link to the early days of automobile travel and Iowa's role in the development of America's highway infrastructure. The presence of the "33" on this design directly represents a specific Iowa highway, providing a sense of place and time to this sticker's overall design.

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.
