And I Will Go To Texas - Davy Crockett FIne Art Print

...and I will go to TEXAS! You know the story. When David Crockett (he preferred to be called David) lost his reelection bid in 1835, he said to the voters of his district: "Since you have chosen to elect a man with a timber toe to succeed me, you may all go to hell and I will go to Texas." It's one of our favorite Texas quotes, and from what we hear, it's probably one of yours too. So we got to thinking... what would that look like as a poster?  The thing that jumped into my head was James Montgomery Flagg's iconic World War I recruiting poster of Uncle Sam. That pointing finger sure reinforces the message. Colonel Crockett's visage is from his 1831 portrait by Samuel Stillman Osgood. Of it Crockett said, "I am happy to acknowledge that this to be the only correct likeness that has ever been taken of me." The coonskin cap? We took that right off Fess Parker. I'm tickled with how it came together. And with as much as I've read about David Crockett and his ways, I think he would be too.
