1948 OH-592 (Ohio) Road Sign Decal: A Retro Road Marker

Design Overview

This decal recreates the classic look of the 1948 OH-592 road sign, a piece of Ohio’s highway history. The design follows the established aesthetic of Ohio state highway markers from the era, presenting a bold and easily recognizable symbol of the state's roadways.

Shape and Composition

The design is centered around a square shape, set on point to create the familiar diamond orientation of a road sign. The overall composition is clean and straightforward, focusing on the essential elements for clear identification.

Color Palette and Imagery

The color scheme is stark and functional. A crisp white background provides a clean canvas. A thick black border encloses the design, adding definition and visual weight. The heart of the sign is the large black silhouette outline of the state of Ohio. This state outline serves as a distinctive and instantly recognizable emblem of the highway system it denotes.

Route Numbering

Inside the Ohio outline, the route number "592" is displayed in bold black numerals. These numbers are carefully centered and slightly condensed to fit neatly within the state's shape, ensuring clear visibility at a distance.

Meaning and Symbolism

The design represents a specific point in Ohio’s transportation history. It symbolizes the state's dedication to its highway system and its commitment to clearly marking its roadways. The use of the Ohio outline is a mark of state pride, identifying the route as part of the Ohio highway network. This simple, yet effective design communicated the essential information needed to navigate Ohio's roads in 1948, a testament to the era's functional design principles.

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.
