Born in Port Arthur in 1925, Rauschenberg's early life in this coastal city was significant in shaping his artistic sensibilities. The Centennial Celebration Poster from the 2005 exhibit at the Museum of the Gulf Coast, which highlights a huge crocodile found in the Port Arthur area, likely reflects the local heritage and the artist's ties to his hometown. The choice of the crocodile, a notable local symbol, serves as a tribute to Rauschenberg’s origins and his impact on the region.
