This t-shirt features a striking piece of vintage Americana: the road sign for Texas State Highway 89 as it appeared in 1935. The design is a faithful reproduction of the iconic Texas State Highway shield, a design that evokes a sense of history and the open road.
The Art of the Shield

This simple yet effective design instantly communicates a connection to Texas's rich past and its enduring spirit of independence.
The t-shirt's artwork embodies a piece of Texas history, a visual tribute to the state's roadways and the era of early automotive travel. It speaks to a time when travel was an adventure and the open road beckoned.
