Vintage Y2K Purina "Checkerboard Logo" T-Shirt - M

This isn't just a pattern; it's a piece of pure Americana, the iconic red and white checkerboard of Purina. For over a century, this logo has been a symbol of quality and trust, seen on feed sacks in barns and pet food bags in homes across the country. The checkerboard itself was inspired by founder William H. Danforth's childhood memory of a family dressed in checkerboard cloth, a visual that came to represent the interconnected 'squares' of a healthy life: physical, mental, social, and spiritual. This tee captures that wholesome, hardworking spirit in a soft, perfectly faded heather gray.
