Goldsmith T-Shirts
Description: Goldsmith is a sleepy little town about 20 miles west of Odessa, Texas. Sitting at the intersection of State Highway 158 and Farm Road 856, in northwestern Ector County, the town grew with the Permian Basin oil field. By 1937 Goldsmith had churches, a post office, a grocery store, a restaurant, and a rooming house, but the town would have to wait another four decades before they had a bar. Tony's Tavern set up shop in 1978, and while a town of just 240 residents may not seem like an ideal place for a bar, Tony was counting on oil field workers and support crews coming and going through town, wanting a place to grab a cold one. Apparently it worked, as Tony's was in business for 35 years, and even became a favorite spot for locals.
