World's Largest Hat and Cowboy Boots Sculpture, world record in Seattle, Washington

The Hat 'n' Boots Premium Tex gas station in Seattle, Washington, featured a giant cowboy hat and boots, setting a world record for the largest sculpture of its kind. Built in 1954 as part of a Western-themed gas station in Georgetown, it became a popular roadside attraction. The landmark was moved to Oxbow Park in 2003 to preserve it. The sculptures were restored in the park, with the hat completed in 2010. The community rallied to save these iconic structures, which hold historical significance for Georgetown and Seattle. Lewis H. Nasmyth received a patent for the design of the gas station in 1956. The Hat 'n' Boots sculptures are now cherished symbols of Seattle's unique past and cultural heritage.
