Tijuana Toads 1969 Vintage Men’s T-Shirt

Description

Tijuana Toads is a series of 17 theatrical cartoons produced by DePatie–Freleng that were released between 1969 and 1972. The series concerns two toads, El Toro and Pancho, who live in the Mexican city of Tijuana. Throughout the cartoon, they try to eat their prey, but always get outsmarted. They would sometimes be targeted by a bird, Crazylegs Crane, and would in turn outsmart him. The series introduced two characters who later got their own series. The Blue Racer first appeared in “Snake in the Gracias” (1971) before getting his own series in 1972. Crazylegs Crane first appeared in “Go for Croack” (1969), and also spun off to his own series for television in 1978. When the series began airing in 1976 as part of the Laugh and a Half Hour and a Half Show, it was re-dubbed and renamed Texas Toads to make the series less offensive. A laugh track was added to the new soundtrack, and the toads were given the new names of Fatso and Banjo.

Details

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 Bella+Canvas 3001 Unisex Jersey Short Sleeve Tees, one of the softest, best-wearing 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.

Sizing

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!
