T-Shirt of the Week

Inspired by an ABC local radio discussion I figured it was time to share my fav. t-shirt collection in a new way! Rock shirts, slogans, humour, special occasions etc. Most recent ones are 'no sweat shop' t's but that hasn't always been possible. The t-type shirt originated as an industry workers buttonless undershirt, made popular and named by the US Navy. Maligned as too informal can you believe we pay companies to advertise on them?

A long time ago...

I bought my Tatooine Cantina Star Wars T-shirt a few year back as a snug fitting, but brilliant design!

I have for a long time sought a follow up, with many fun and detailed ones out there...

I decided to 'keep it simple'... This t-shirt takes me right back to the beginning...

The Chelsea Theatre Cinema - run by Uncle Colin and Aunty Margaret Hanks - Melbourne St, East Maitland! The Imperial Class Star Destroyer and these words, inviting us into story, spectacle and fable...George Lucas of course, loves starting a story in the middle...

Star Wars Episode IV A New Hope, opening week, May 1977!

Time for Another Round of T-shirt of the Week

It's been a while, so for some reason I feel it's time to do another round of t-shirts! This is a 2024 purchase celebrating Larry David's "Curb Your Enthusiasm." A comedian's comedian, Jerry Seinfeld asked Larry to help him create the sitcom Seinfeld and this series, with cheap graphics and theme music, sees Larry playing a character indistinguishable from himself, sharing some of his real life story with amplified events and characters around him, taking his paranoia to new levels.

"Latte Larry's" is a Coffee Shop he opened, leasing the space next door to "Mocha Joe's" after an argument with its owner! Of course the whole episode ended in disaster!
