Texas Girl Coffee

Texas Girl Coffee is one of the early Hoffmann-Hayman house brands—named, on family tradition, for a niece and carried in the medallion portrait and bluebonnet artwork collectors chase hardest. It sits on the Welcome roster with H and H Blend, Sam Houston, and the rest, and often appears in 1930s display ads beside those lines (see Sam Houston Coffee label for the Brownsville Herald spread).

Texas Girl is widely regarded as the most collectible H and H coffee identity; even so, several retail formats in the reference lists are still missing or thin in the online museum—see Wanted below.
