About This Emblem

This unofficial emblem, designed by author/historian Steven R. Butler for the Sequicentennial (150th anniversary) of the founding of Richardson in 1873, incorporates a steam locomotive like the ones that were used by the Houston & Texas Central Railroad, which was instrumental in the town's establishment, and a depot sign resembling that type that were in use in the late 19th century. The star in the outline map of Texas shows the approximate location of Richardson.
