Old Texas 51 (Texas) Road Sign STICKER - Design Description

This sticker presents a nostalgic glimpse into Texas history through its representation of the Old Texas State Highway 51 (SH 51) road sign. The design is a visual journey through the evolution of Texas highway signage.

The 1920s Texas-Outline Shield

The sticker may feature the earliest iteration of the SH 51 sign, characterized by a white background and a black silhouette of the state of Texas. Centered within this iconic outline is the number "51," boldly displayed, and "TEXAS" is elegantly placed along the bottom edge. This design signifies the early days of the state's highway system, celebrating the vastness and the Lone Star state itself.

The 1930s-40s Circle-in-Square

The design may also show the later iteration of the sign. This version features a black square framing a white circle. Inside the circle, the number "51" is presented in black, creating a strong contrast. Beneath the circle, "TEXAS" is printed, further reinforcing the association with the state. This design represents a move towards standardized signage while still retaining a distinct Texas identity.

Modern Rectangular Design

The design, in its final representation, could feature the modern rectangular style. This design is a white rectangle with the black numeral "51" displayed above the word "TEXAS." This indicates the later reuse of the SH 51 designation, reflecting the evolution of road sign design over time.

Overall Symbolism

The sticker, by showcasing these different sign styles, represents a journey through Texas's past, reflecting changes in signage design and transportation history. It's a tribute to a bygone era of the open road, of state highways and the evolution of the road sign.

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.
