Subject:      Type2 List T-Shirts!

Okay, I'm getting a lot of questions about the T-shirts so here's the deal:

You can have a look at the artwork for the T-shirts by pointing your graphical browser to this address:

The shirts are Haynes BeefyTs. They're black, the better to hide spatters and smears and filthy patches at the shoulder blades. Hey, we are who we are. ;)

Sizes L-XL-XXL. I can get other sizes all the way down to toddlers, but the deal on that is that the printer needs a 50% draw to print them, then the other 50% on delivery. That means that if you want a size other than L-XL-XXL you have to order SOON, before your fellows send me enough money to make the draw, because at that point the order will be finalized and it'll be too late for other sizes.

These are being printed by Progressive Graphics of Charlotte, which is the same outfit that did Bob and Richard's superb ACS&R shirts.

UK listees: Bob Wallace <wallace_b@IPGATE.sls.co.uk> has graciously offered to concatenate your Sterling so you don't each have to spend $7 for a check payable in foreign currency. Get with him about it.

All sizes are gonna run you $17 except XXL, which is two dollars more. It's the jobber doing that to you big folks, it ain't me--the raw XXL shirts cost $2 more. Prices include shipping in the US.

For some perspective, consider that I've spent right at $700 on this list since last July when we started it. No kidding.

Stickers:

The stickers are purple ink over chrome Mylar. The lettering resembles the T-shirt and is "reversed", so the stickers look purple while the lettering looks silver. These have a coating over them to preserve the ink and keep the chrome from being so glossy that it's obnoxious. Permanent adhesive, they're designed to be mounted on the exterior lower left corner of your rear window. Panel drivers will have to improvise.

I said originally that these would be oval like the v@l stickers but it looks like they'll be more circular instead. Take a look at the artwork and you'll understand why.

Stickers are $2 each, includes shipping in US.

Print this out and sent it to me by smail:

Attach a note and tell me what sizes and how many of what.

I'll talk about discounts for bulk orders, send me pmail. UK/Europe/Pacific Rim people, your mail might take a long time to get here so if you SWEAR to me the money has been sent, I'll order non-standard sizes for you.
