Interesting story here developed over a couple days at Mirror Image. Todrick Hall called and needed shirts in a hurry. He of the over 40 million views on Youtube. He loves the Wizard of Oz and has the ink to prove it on his arm (though I neglected to get a photo of that.) He’s…
I love making fun of big corporations, so its nice to see that parody still can exist in our system. Here’s an article saying that t-shirts saying Zombies Eat Flesh that look like Subway Eat Fresh might have some legal ground to stand on.
All too often a customer insists that their image on their shirts should match their billboards, signs, posters, table tents, magazine adverts, etc. Farm Aid and the artist for their logo Kathy Keller did a great job of creating a logo, but having variations for web, poster, tickets, and importantly for us shirts.

Inspiring press conference by Farm Aid, impressive music, and some good merch sales happening for a good cause. This year in Raleigh, NC, happening today.

About to hit the road to run the merch at Farm Aid 2014 in Raleigh. Farm Aid is a concert with Willie Nelson, Dave Matthews, Neil Young, and John Mellencamp playing every year for the benefit of saving family farms. They get some help from other musicians (Jack White this year should be a must…
Someone was asking me this week about the use of a discharge ink as an underbase. Discharge ink is an ink that basically neutralizes the dye in a shirt instead of printing over the dye. So with discharge ink you don’t need two prints (usually white and then the color) and so it gets a…
One good thing about owning a t-shirt printing company is that once in awhile you can just print something you just feel like printing. (Some days it seems like the only good thing…) I saw these shirts online in a photo when the Replacements played last year after a long hiatus. I didn’t see the…
