…a new T-shirt, of course.
To mark the release of “Campaign Furniture” next month, we’ll be releasing this T-shirt design, which amuses even my wife.
The front features a campaign-style chest of drawers from the 1909 catalog of the Army & Navy Co-operative Society. And on the back…
We’re using 100-percent cotton American Apparel shirts (made in Los Angeles) in an army green with white lettering. The shirts (4.3 oz. cotton) are printed by a small family-run firm in Noblesville, Ind. The shirts will be $20, plus first-class shipping in the United States.
Please note: Mouth-breathing hipster not included.
The shirts might be available a few days before the book. As the shirts will ship separately from the book (thank you, media mail regulations), we’ll likely put them up on the site a few days early so you can be wearing the shirt on the day your book arrives. I know no one will do that. It’s just too dorky to contemplate. OK, I’ll be doing that.

Dear sir
I’m writing to request you have fat boy sizes 3 and 4 xl please good sir. I would expect to pay a upcharge. In closing I want to thank you an company for many hours reading enjoyment.
I will try to set up a Zazzle store for the outlying sizes. We can’t stock those sizes without losing a lot of money. We don’t sell many shirts.
Those are men’s sizes; not “outlying” sizes!
Would that be a chest on chest?

Ha HA! Just today, I am wearing my lone worn olive green t-shirt (under a warm flannel with olive green undertones in the plaid). As I was putting said shirt on this morning, I says to myself, “Self, your olive green t-shirt, which you are just about ready to nicely pair with yonder flannel shirt with olive green undertones in the plaid, is getting a touch ragged around the edges*, so it may be time for a new olive green shirt.”
*this may be an understatement
Believe it or not, finding good t-shirts is not easy. Lo and behold…
Kilted, checkout Liberty Tool in Maine. They have a seconds store for their T shirt company, Liberty Graphics. T shirts AND tools,. heaven!
Chris, you ARE going to take side trip there in July, right?
I will try again. This would be my third attempt. They have odd hours.
Thanks for the tip. Virtually no chance of making it there in person, but I’ll check out the Liberty Graphics on-line store.
I know this may sound blasphemous, but would Lost Art Press every consider printing shirts without the witticisms plastered on the back? I have been fond of quite a few of the front images but have been held back by the print. Perhaps the Zazzle store can allow for such exclusions? Maybe also include some of the previous prints in the Zazzle store?
Herbert,
Here’s what I can do: Here’s a link to download the art on the front of the shirt:

You can use that in Zazzle to make a shirt of whatever size and color you like without the naughtiness on the back.
Hope this helps.
I think we could get more bang for our buck if you don’t hire Mark Zuckerberg as a model.
I can wear that one out of the house only with my hair down.
I too never wear a hipster beard without a hair curtain…
