Texas Alphabet Art Prints – Cities, Icons & Trailblazing Women | Crum Art

Seven designs. Four are city alphabets — Austin, Dallas, Fort Worth and San Antonio — built from the things a kid in that town actually recognizes rather than a generic skyline. One is a Texas icons alphabet. And one is the Alphabet of Texas Women, a letter-by-letter run through the state's trailblazers, which is the one adults buy for themselves and then explain to guests.

They go up in nurseries, kids' rooms, playrooms and classrooms. The Texas Women print has a second life in offices, where it turns up as a gift for attorneys, pilots, and anybody who got somewhere first and had to hear about it the whole way.

Questions

Which alphabets are available? City alphabets for Austin, Dallas, Fort Worth and San Antonio, a Texas icons alphabet, and the Alphabet of Texas Women. Each is an original Crum family design.

Do these work as baby shower gifts? They are one of the most common reasons people buy them, particularly for a Texas-themed shower where everything else on the table is a onesie.

What size for a nursery wall? The 16x20 reads from a rocking chair on the other side of the room. The 11x14 suits a gallery arrangement over a dresser or a changing table.

Does it come framed? No. Prints arrive unframed in standard sizes, so a frame from any store in town fits.

Who made it? The Crum family, working in Texas. Original artwork, printed to order.

Alphabets are gateway art. Move on to quote prints when they start talking back, baby gifts for the rest of the shower table, and Texas gifts for the family tree.
