Penn Drake PRX Racing Oil 1956 Vintage Kid’s T-Shirt

PRX Racing Oil was one of many Penn Drake branded petroleum products produced by the Pennsylvania Refining Company from the mid-’40s through the late ’60s. Penn Drake takes its name from the Drake Well in Pennsylvania, a 69′-foot-deep oil well in Cherrytree Township, Venango County, the success of which sparked the first oil boom in the United States. Drilled by Edwin Drake in 1859 along the banks of Oil Creek, it is the first commercial oil well in the United States and was listed on the National Register of Historic Places and designated a National Historic Landmark in 1966. The well is the centerpiece of the Drake Well Museum located 3 miles south of Titusville.

Like all our designs, this one is treated with our signature ‘relic-ing’ process which includes our own secret recipe of hand-painted chipping, cracking, fading, and just the right touch of yellowing to ensure that it looks the part of a true vintage imprint.** We lay these works of art down on premium Delta 11736 tees, one of the softest, best-wearing kid’s t-shirts available today, via state of the art direct to garment (DTG) printing which allows us to create a vintage effect that simply can’t be accomplished with other printing methods. In short, this youth pro weight tee is perfect for every kid who wants a comfortable shirt to play, relax, or romp around in and our durable, high quality prints will survive many adventures.

Not sure what size is your best fit? We recommend taking one of your current t-shirts, laying it flat and measuring it. The measurements in the chart below are taken with the shirt laying on a flat surface. To get the length, measure from the high shoulder point down to the bottom of the shirt. To get the width, measure approximately 1-inch below the armhole, across the chest, from seam to seam. While our tees are all made using premium, pre-shrunk, ring-spun cotton, there can be some shrinkage depending on your personal wash and dry cycles. With that said, if you’re on the fence, we always suggest going up a size.

All sizes are provided in inches!
