History of the AJC Peachtree Road Race: See photos of the race T-shirts from 1980-1989. 'The 1983 shirt was not white,' Atlanta Track Club executive director Julia Emmons said. 'It was a yellow no self-respecting daffodil or egg yoke would claim.'

"I think in the late 1970s and early 1980s the race would have lost some runners without the T-shirt," Atlanta resident and Peachtree participant Arnold Friedman said.
