Favorite Shirt Product Selections

[Dr. Bantham]

Vote (see above) on which shirts you are likely to purchase once The Red Tower (TLO merchandise "factory") goes online. This is not a committment, but instead a polling tool to evaluate shirt production priority.

Note that this poll is set up to accept muliple selections, not just a singular favorite.

I am attaching mockup images of the each shirt designs. Note that each design is preliminary and most do not yet have text affixed. "Crypt of Ligotti" has been culled from the special Ligotti issue of CRYPT OF CTHULU and will be printed on light blue fabric to match the cover stock, if possible.

I've voted for each of the designs. Each is very cool in its own way! Might I suggest one that says, "I shopped at The Red Tower and all I got was this stupid T-shirt"? Ideally, this shirt would bleed or ooze or something....

Additional thoughts, later, from the ShoutBox:

Doc, the The Red Tower shirt would alternately weep, bleed, throb, and change color/texture as it glows in the light. I want one. To look at, not to wear....

More presicelly (spelling, please?) these:

1. "I dreamt of the Red Tower and all I found was this worthless shirt...", in eloquent red writing on a neutral grey background.
2. Black T-shirt, with a small door on the front, "Hello, Sherry" printed in red on it, the words "WORK NOT DONE" from the MWINYD lettered edition on the back, above a broken hand-mirror.
3. Dark blue shirt, full moon, small silhouette of a violinist on front, text reading "This is moon musick."; Back, eye diagram and spiderweb in white, top text reading "The (absolute) cure for insomnia.", bottom text TLO address.

And to think I was concerned about overwhelming the members with too many designs...

I love the Red Tower gag gift. It almost deserves to be designed in spite of the fact that it may receive little to no purchases.

As for the "Work Not Done" quotation, it is perhaps the obvious choice. I am also taken with the manic scratch lettering on the Deluxe Edition traycase, however I am concerned that this may be more related to the publisher's design and thus would require yet another permission request.

all of these = good suggestions
