This ivory garment-dyed tee features a wide oval medallion showing a covered wagon and a team of oxen heading west across open prairie toward a low setting sun. The printed words read Jumping-Off Place and Nebraska City, Nebraska, in brown, brick red, forest green, and navy ink. Nebraska City cares about the Jumping-Off Place idea, the town's place in the story of westward travel.
The story behind this design. Before it grew into a town, the site was a US Army post and a popular “jumping‑off place” for westward emigration; activity dwindled in the late 1860s with the railroad. More in About Nebraska City
