⏳ Step back in time with this vintage tee from Annamaria's Pizza House, the iconic Italian restaurant that charmed the hearts and taste buds of Durham, NC for decades 🍕 A Taste of Nostalgia Annamaria's was more than just a pizzeria; it was a beloved gathering place for everyone, from Duke University students to hardworking locals in the tobacco district. Founded by Annamaria Malanga, a New Jersey native who moved to Durham seeking medical treatment for her daughter, this restaurant became a symbol of mid-20th-century Durham culture 🍝 Durham's pizza journey began when Duke University quarterback Sonny Jurgensen 🏈 asked Anna to whip up a pizza pie 🍕 The Duke student body quickly developed a hankering for this Italian delight. Thanks to U.S. troops returning from Italy after World War II, pizza's popularity was on the rise, and Annamaria's played a pivotal role in its local ascent 🍝 Spags & Balls = Spaghetti & Meatballs The language of Annamaria's was as delightful as its dishes. Spags and Balls was their affectionate moniker for Spaghetti & Meatballs 🏢 A Fond Farewell Annamaria's Pizza House closed its doors in 1986, making way for a private pay parking lot that still stands to this day. But you can keep the memory alive with this vintage pizza tee, a piece of Durham's delicious history -->FIT<-- This vintage Hanes Beefy-T, marked as a size small, has gracefully aged the years and now fits more like a women's XS or a smaller child's size MB1
