This vintage tee commemorates an event called the Great Race of '76, which was organized by the Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks. This shirt features the number 1708, which used to belong to the Marblehead Elks Lodge in Massachusetts. This lodge was one of many that belonged to the East District of the Massachusetts State Elks Association. This tee also mentions Tuborg, a Danish beer who likely sponsored the race.

The Elks are an American fraternal order that dates all the way back to the mid 19th century. The group has various lodges all across the nation, who all participate in different local and national events, and it's safe to assume that the Great Race of '76 was a local event for Elks members in the Marblehead area.

Fits like a modern unisex adult medium. This shirt has some uneven fading that's mostly on the front, see pics.
