US 62 New York 1926 (Road Sign) Vinyl Decal: Design Description

This vinyl decal presents a faithful recreation of the original US 62 road sign as it would have appeared in New York state during the early days of the U.S. Highway System, circa 1926. The design is a simple yet iconic representation of this important route.

Visual Elements

The central element is the classic U.S. Route shield. This shield, either rectangular or featuring an early-style rounded shape, forms the backdrop for the route designation. Prominently displayed within the shield is the bold number "62". The color scheme is a timeless combination: the number "62" is rendered in bold black, providing a clear visual contrast against the background of the white shield. This stark contrast ensures high visibility, a crucial function for road signage.

Meaning and Symbolism

The design of the US 62 road sign is more than just a marker; it’s a symbol of connectivity and navigation. The “62” signifies a critical north-south route in western New York, linking communities from the Pennsylvania border north towards the Canadian vicinity. The shield itself represents the standardization and uniformity of the U.S. Highway System, a crucial element in the development of the nation's transportation infrastructure. This decal is a tribute to the early, fundamental role US 62 played in the growth and accessibility of western New York.

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.
