OH-70 1960 (Ohio) (Road Sign) STICKER Vinyl Kiss-Cut Decal: A Design Deep Dive

This sticker presents a faithful reproduction of the Ohio State Route 70 road sign as it appeared in 1960. The design is a direct visual link to a specific moment in Ohio's transportation history, a time when the state still utilized its iconic, state-outline highway marker.

A State in Silhouette

The central element of the design is the unmistakable silhouette of the state of Ohio. Its familiar form, with its flat vertical sides, rounded bottom, and distinctive "northeast notch," immediately identifies the sign's origin. This outline serves as a visual anchor, firmly placing the design within the context of Ohio.

Bold Simplicity

Inside the white outline of Ohio, the number "70" is prominently displayed. The bold, black numerals convey a sense of clarity and purpose, essential for quickly conveying information to drivers. The stark contrast of black on white ensures high visibility and readability, a key function of any road sign.

Historical Significance

This sticker design not only captures a specific aesthetic but also embodies a piece of history. The absence of "OHIO" text, a characteristic of this era of signage, and the use of the state outline shape itself, directly reference Ohio's historical approach to road marking, a practice that would later be retired. The sign visually embodies a pre-Interstate era in Ohio, making it a nostalgic representation of a bygone era in road travel.

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.
