N-4 1926 (Nebraska) Road Sign Sticker - Design Overview

This vinyl kiss-cut decal authentically recreates the iconic N-4 road sign from Nebraska's original 1926 highway system. The design is a direct visual echo of a piece of Nebraska's transportation history, rich with symbolism and historical significance.

Design Elements

The sign takes the form of a distinctive rectangular trapezoid, a shape consistent with the period's road signage. At the top, the word "NEBRASKA" is boldly displayed in classic block lettering, clearly identifying the state.

The centerpiece of the design is a striking visual representation of Nebraska's heritage: a covered wagon and oxen. This emblem, a defining feature of all Nebraska primary and auxiliary highway shields in 1926, powerfully evokes the state's pioneer spirit and its deep connection to the Oregon Trail.

Beneath the covered wagon, the number "4" is prominently featured, signifying this specific road as the main N-4 highway within the state's original network.

Color and Symbolism

The color palette is stark and effective: black lettering and wagon imagery are set against a crisp white background. This high-contrast approach ensured visibility and readability, a key requirement for road signs of the era.

The covered wagon image itself is more than just a visual; it serves as a powerful symbol. It represents the perseverance of the early settlers, the westward expansion, and the pioneering spirit that shaped Nebraska. The N-4 sign, through this imagery, connects the road with the very heart of the state’s identity.

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.
