The
World's Largest: A Tape About Texas: 27 minutes
Is
everything larger in Texas? Everyone knows that Texans like to show off
"big-ly," and they like to perpetuate the myth in a big way
too. "The World's Largest" features larger than life size monuments
built primarily in small Texas towns, including the World's Largest Jackrabbit,
Peanut, Shrimp, and Beer Cans, among others. The old-timers who were instrumental
in realizing the monuments appear in the video, helping illuminate the
era in which the monuments were built - post World War II to the mid-sixties.
Today, the monuments remain an important record of the pride of those
people in their local resources and their distinctly Texan sense of humor.
