Patterson Motor Car Co. 1915 Blueprint Tee
Long before diversity initiatives and inclusion pledges, Frederick Douglas Patterson was building cars. In 1915, he founded the Patterson Motor Car Company in Greenfield, Ohio — the first Black-owned automobile manufacturing company in American history. This vintage technical blueprint tee features the original Patterson automobile with full engineering specifications. A tribute to Black entrepreneurship and mechanical genius that history forgot to teach you.
Driven by Vision. Built on Purpose.
