Holland Michigan T-Shirts

The Holland Harbor Light, affectionately known as Big Red, basks in the evening sun on Lake Michigan.

Founded in 1929 by John and Katherine Cooper in Holland, Michigan, Holland Motor Express operated a north-south line haul covering Indiana, Illinois, Michigan, Kentucky, and Ohio. When Congress passed The Motor Carrier Act of 1935, requiring new trucking firms to obtain an operating certificate through the Interstate Commerce Commission (ICC), Holland's routes were locked in with little worry about competition. "The Big Dutch Fleet" bought up smaller companies and took on their operating authority to expand their reach over the years, and before too long, were the largest trucking company in Michigan, and at one point, were even the biggest in the Midwest.

Charles P. Limbert was an American furniture designer. He is considered one of the most successful furniture leaders in the history of Grand Rapids, Michigan, and the Arts and Crafts movement in America. The furniture that bears his name is highly sought after and seriously collected to this day. Painstakingly adapted from the logo used by the company from 1902-1905, this is the perfect design for the Arts & Crafts furniture fan.

Big Red isn't the biggest lighthouse on Lake Michigan but it definitely big and red. Here it is in the fall with the sun, sand, and Lake making us long for summer. Contact me for customization.
