Celebrating America's 250th by throwing it back to the Jersey Shore's 200th.

Get ready for America’s Semiquincentennial in 2026 by rewinding fifty years to the last great nationwide birthday bash. We’ve faithfully recreated an authentic slice of 1976 Americana just in time for the big 2-5-0.

This isn't just a cool vintage-inspired design; it's a time capsule. It is a direct replica of a shirt worn during the Bicentennial summer at the legendary Belmar Playland. For decades, Playland was the heartbeat of the Belmar boardwalk—a place defined by the sounds of arcade games, the smell of salt air and boardwalk food, and endless summer nights. This graphic captures the specific moment when local shore culture met national pride to celebrate the country's 200th birthday.

Today, this lightweight cotton tee is the perfect way to honor the upcoming 250th milestone with authentic retro flare. It features a relaxed fit and the classic contrasting ringer trims on the neckline and sleeves that define the 70s sport-casual look. While the design is pure '76, the feel is modern; it's incredibly soft, not scratchy like the originals. Wear it with jeans, shorts, or joggers for a laid-back, patriotic everyday look.

The graphic is printed direct to garment, one shirt at a time, after you order it.

Printed to order. Nothing sits in a warehouse. Your shirt is printed after you buy it and ships directly from the print facility, not from the Jersey Shore. Expect a few days of production before it ships, then normal transit time. Shipping is calculated at checkout, and it is free on any 3 tees or any order over $99.
