We present a time series of synoptic images of the linearly-polarized v=1,J=1-0 SiO maser emission toward the Mira variable, TX Cam. These data comprise43 individual epochs at an approximate biweekly sampling over an opticalpulsation phase range of 0.68 to 1.82. The images have an angular resolution of~500 microarcsec and were obtained using the Very Long Baseline Array (VLBA),operating in the 43 GHz band in spectral-line, polarization mode. We havepreviously published the total intensity time series for this pulsation phaserange; this paper serves to present the linearly-polarized image sequence andan associated animation representing the evolution of the linear polarizationmorphology over time. We find a predominantly tangential polarizationmorphology, a high degree of persistence in linear polarization properties overindividual component lifetimes, and stronger linear polarization in the innerprojected shell than at larger projected shell radii. We present an initialpolarization proper motion analysis examining the possible dynamical influenceof magnetic fields in component motions in the extended atmospheres oflate-type, evolved stars.
