They were printed with the same hand-mixed metallic red and pearl white inks that were used for the 7″ covers. We’ve taken care to print the smaller sized shirts on organic cotton American Apparel shirts and the larger sizes on special deluxe heavyweight soft cotton shirts. There are a few left from the original printing in all sizes… We received 2 more Starflyer 7″ and began to ship them. For some reason, the 3rd 7″ that was planned got bumped from the pressing schedule until after the holidays. So, I went ahead and started to ship out the next series of 2 7″ with the wooden box. Those special holiday subscribers are receiving the first 6 7″ in the series with…Continue reading
