U.S. Highway Shields Centennial Celebration Collection
U.S. Highway Shields – Centennial Celebration honors one of the most recognizable symbols in American transportation history: the U.S. Highway shield. Since the creation of the U.S. Numbered Highway System on November 11, 1926, these distinctive black-and-white markers have guided travelers across the nation, becoming enduring icons of exploration, adventure, and the American road trip.
This collection features commemorative designs inspired by historic U.S. Highway shields and celebrates the centennial of the roads they represent. From legendary cross-country routes to beloved regional highways, each design pays tribute to the highways that connected communities, supported commerce, and opened the nation to generations of travelers.
Whether crossing deserts, mountains, farmland, or coastlines, America's highways have carried countless journeys over the past century. These classic shield designs honor both the roads themselves and the spirit of discovery they continue to inspire.
Designed by RoadTripMemories.com in collaboration with American Road Magazine, the U.S. Highway Shields – Centennial Celebration collection commemorates 100 years of America's historic highways and the adventures found along them.
