Di Salvo Trucking Co. 1948 Vintage Men's T-Shirt

Description

Di Salvo Trucking Company got their start in the 1940s when Russ Di Salvo bought himself a used farm truck and began offering cartage services in and around San Francisco. Within ten years, Di Salvo added more trucks, hired drivers, and extended well beyond the Bay Area. By the 1960s, Di Salvo Trucking had a sizable fleet and was moving freight throughout California, and their red cab over semi trucks were a common sight up and down the I-5 corridor. Fast-forward to 2002, and Di Salvo Trucking Co. had finally reached the end of the road, where the line was shuttered and facilities and equipment sold off to other LTL haulers looking to expand into California.

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. In short, these shirts are everything you’ve dreamed of and more – it feels soft and lightweight with just the right amount of stretch making it comfortable and flattering for both men and women.

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!
