Brian Cook Illustration
When the below “Beatles” shirt was designed by Experimental Jetset back in 2001 it was indeed an innovative an awesome new take on the “band” shirt. HOWEVER…. People have a tendency of re-using innovative ideas until they have beaten the horse to death. I’ve been thinking for a while how one might reverse a trend like this that has been mocked and copied to the point of nausea.  Finally it came to me: fight fire with fire. If you like the design it’s up for voting to be made into a Threadless + Gap tee!  Click the image to cast your vote!
