New New Mexico Route Marker!

No, it's not for real (yet) but it's my latest design for route markers we'd like to see in that state.

The size of the sign is 36" wide by 30" high with 12" high numerals and a 9" high/wide Zuni.

New Mexico Route Marker (2) and (3)

My first idea for the new New Mexico route marker is located here, but it looks too much like the old zuni in a boring circle sign design, and the numerals are too small to be read, methinks. Especially if the motorist is old. So I came up with two other designs, both based on the New Mexico centennial registration plate.

And here they are!

 

This one would be about 42" or 48" long, for respective heights of 21' and 24".

 But this one could fit on a regular 24" x 24" metal sign plate with very legible numbers.

The zuni indicates it's a New Mexico state highway.

 



(Right now they're kind of green so it looks like I'll have to fix the colors!)

New Mexico.

Let's get rid of the white circle on the black field and colorize the thing.

This example uses the colors of New Mexico's Centennial series automobile registration plates.

Arizona

Here's an ides for Arizona route signs based on its state flag. It doesn't have the state shape or the state name written across the top, though. I thought I'd keep it simple.
