Downtown Dallas Pegasus Neon sign T-Shirt
If you were a child growing up in Dallas in the 50's, you could see this neon Pegasus illuminating the skyline. It was rotating atop the tallest building in town. Mobil Oil owned that building for their headquarters and they used the winged horse Pegasus as their logo.
Originally, the building was owned by the Magnolia Petroleum Company and the Pegasus was erected in 1934. After a merger with Mobil, they kept the Mobil name and the Magnolia Pegasus. Over the years, the Pegasus became a symbol for the city of Dallas.
Eventually Mobil moved out of the building, and in 1999 it became the Magnolia Hotel. By that point, the sign already had severe mechanical problems. in 1999, it was taken down for repair, but they found it's problems too extensive for a quick repair. In its place, a new Pegasus was placed atop the Hotel, and was first illuminated at midnight of the new millennium.
Fast forward to 2015, the original Pegasus underwent a complete restoration. It can now be seen atop a replica oil derrick in front of the Omni Hotel downtown.

I give wanted to give this a 4 instead of a 5 because these Basic DARK T0shirts run unexpectedly SLIM or Narrow. Which is great if you do not have a potbelly, but I have a paunch. It isn't the shirt's fault that I've got a beer belly. The design and shirt itself is a quality cotton shirt. The color is more of a deep purple, but still a very pretty color. The Basic DARK T-shirts run a bit SLIMMER than the Basic Ts. The neck is a fraction narrower (or seems to be narrower) also. I'm a paunchy middle-aged woman and my neck is 12 inches (31cm) thick and the neckline fell about the same as in the photo of the man, and I had the desire to tug it a bit. So if you're a thick necked man or like loose shirts, be aware these are slimmer shirts. Once I get rid of my lockdown paunch it'll look great. The shirt washed well in cold water with no apparent bleeding. We don't have a dryer, so it hung dry. Did not shrink. Love the colors and the design. The design looks smaller on my shirt than it does on the model on-line. But still, it looks good on the shirt. The printing looks as it does on the model, just the size seems fractionally smaller. Washed garment in cold water, hung dry and design appeared unaffected.

I'm wearing this as I type... It's fab! Lovely quality. Soft material, perfect fit, nice and warm (It is very cold here, I live at the top of a hill and the wind is brutal in winter). Couldn't be happier with this. My Girlfriend really likes it as well - always a bonus! I was really impressed by how the printing turned out - my photo's don't do it justice. This is a complex design with a lot of colour variations but the finished article is really impressive. I couldn't be happier with how this has turned out. This is also one of my first designs to have been purchased by someone else (thank you so much!) I'm really curious to know what they think of the finished product...
