Hello folks...anyone know where I could find a "Karen" T-shirt, along the lines of the Lee Remick Able record centre. I saw a chap in London wearing one, but have scoured the net in vain. Any suggestions or ideas ?

Self made, maybe? Found the label image on the Web or used the actual label, scanned it, and had a custom T-shirt printed?

I bought mine off a guy on ebay a couple of years ago - I think they were only available on the 1st reunion tour.

sorry - can't be more help than that

btw the quality of the shirt is much nicer that the lee remick et al.

I might start a line in GB's shirts, anyone got any nice designs? Wilco do a nice line in shirts, I like their policy of not one logo, they use typefaces in a very traditional American way, they alwys look good. I'd also love to do some Postcard t- shirts. I was going to do a run of Josef K shirts for the site I dd for em, but alas funds and time didn't permit...I rememebr there being lots of t shirts at the Forum gig for the GB's in june '97. Able label etc etc really nice

Spence,

I always thought that the cover of the 'Les Inrockuptibles' (the edition that the 16LL acoustic demos came with) would make a cool t-shirt. OK, it's in French, but has another outtake shot from Liberty Bell (RF with cowboy hat) and the title "Le group le plus sous-estimé de l'histoire du rock?" (the most under-estimated group in the history of rock?)
On the French theme, the re-launched Postcard did a very nice 'Fin de Siècle' one with the kitten and the drum. Mine is now sadly a duster.

Oh, that t-shirt. Mine is another 'duster'. I remember the Postcard cat-a-logue saying something about 'built in ob-(something meaning self-destroying) factor'. That was well put...

But now I have bought the I need two heads 7" label t-shirt from the GBs shop. Very nice. (The able label t-shirt from 1999 has also been worn out).

Andrew , yeah that cover was nice. I feel that the label to the postcard release would be a great t-shirt, a side front and b side reverse of the t-shirt!?

I wonder if Alan will do Postcard 3 or Swamplands 2? We need a new Win that's all I can say, they were so good that group. Nectarine's are cool though.
