1993 Winter Harbor Lobster Festival Soft T-Shirt
Celebrate Maine’s coastal heritage with this vintage-inspired tee commemorating the 1993 Winter Harbor Lobster Festival — a beloved summer tradition set against the rugged beauty of Downeast Maine.
Product Description
This design draws inspiration from the original 1993 festival artwork, capturing the bold abstract lobster motif in vibrant red and yellow, framed by the dark evergreen tones reminiscent of tied nets and Maine’s shoreline pine. “Winter Harbor Lobster Festival ’93” is proudly displayed in the same distinctive hand-lettering seen on original shirts from the era.
Wear this shirt as more than just a graphic tee — wear it as a tribute to Downeast’s communal spirit, from New England lobster rolls to waterfront gathering, fireworks, and family memories.
Historical Highlights
The Winter Harbor Lobster Festival has long been a central summer event in Washington County, Maine, showcasing local lobstermen, seafood feasts, live music, and arts & crafts.
The 1993 edition is now iconic among collectors for its abstract lobster design and bold color palette.
Participants of this festival often wore tee shirts, posters, and pins to celebrate the region’s most prized crustacean and draw visitors to the small harbor town.
