A Classic Texas Landmark
This t-shirt showcases a faithful reproduction of the Texas State Highway 44 road sign as it appeared in 1935. The design is a bold statement of Texas history, capturing a snapshot of the state's transportation network during a pivotal era.
Visual Elements: A Striking Simplicity

The sign is a nod to a time before interstates and symbolizes the early efforts to build a standardized, reliable system of highways for Texans.
