Description: Outlaw country is a subgenre of American country music created by a small group of iconoclastic artists active in the ’70s and early ’80s, known collectively as the outlaw movement. Willie, Waylon, Kristofferson, and Coe were among the movement’s most commercially successful artists who fought for and won their creative freedom outside of the Nashville establishment. This Willie and Family On The Road Again design is a remnant from that era when outlaw country stood up to the machine that dictated the sound of country music of the era.

Description: International was an American manufacturer of agricultural and construction equipment, automobiles, commercial trucks, lawn and garden products, household equipment, and more. It was formed in 1902 with the merger of several smaller companies. In the '80s, all divisions were sold off, except for the commercial truck division, which received a new name and continues to this day. Given its monumental importance to the building of rural communities, International tractors continue to work American farms every single day, and maintain a massive cult following.
