I would also often see signs that began with "Texas sized....." For example, "Texas sized savings!", "Texas sized dinner!", "Texas sized deals!", etc. etc.

When I first looked at the thread title, I thought you are talking about signs of intelligence.
But then I saw you are talking about Texas....

I don't buy the 'original' mambo-jambo. Just a way for the locals to get off on feeling superior. On the occasions I go to the North End when somebody mentions they are to the effect of "original" I always feel like "hey I don't tell you MY problems".

Don't forget about AMD, Bell Helicopter, and what used to be Consolidated Aircraft/General Dynamics (home of the B-36 and F-16). Dr. Pepper is also a Texas invention.
