This will probably only make sense to people from the UK, and even then only those who are over 25!

It's from the fire brigade roll-call intro to a classic stop-motion kids' series called 'Trumpton' broadcast in the UK in the '70s and early '80s. Brings back wonderful memories…

Oh, and obviously it's a spoof on the John&Paul etc t-shirt.

hahahaha. hey at least i had a comment directed at the t-shirt. the fuck is wrong with you, i know you completely hate my guts but what's the point of calling me out when i haven't even done anything worth calling attention to.
i've said all i needed to say about this design anyway, thanks for the laugh though p-v-n.

Ladies, settle down.

And yeah, this is for a really limited audience.

This is supposed to look a little plain as was the joke off of these kinds of "Beatles"-inspired tee design of like two years ago. But you know what? It's a done idea, and only funny in very rare cases (like the Golden Girls one where all the ampersands were in gold foil that someone did on this site like a few months ago), and probably not destined even for a niche Threadless audience with a British show's characters from the 70's! lol. nice try, but try the approach on some other series of characters......or just make something else.

lol @ pirate v ninja - you gutless twat..... throwing insults while hiding from the bushes....youve got shit all in your profile (i know i dont but i dont care cos i dont throw spineless insults) so youre too ashamed of revealling yourself

how bout you go f*** yourself, thats something productive for you to do



btw yeah this being an american site i dont think this will appeal to americans much

ur insane
so what I'm no amateur t-shirt designer, big fuckin deal
and I dont carry around a camera to snap pics of myself to post on the internet
yes, aren't I the loser
so what, to insult someone you have to have a loaded profile
thats solid reasoning

C'mon be adventurous, wear something that your neighbor will not understand! And cuz "this being an american site", do non-americans need permission to view or buy?

This is not a new idea

yes, and while we all take deep calming breaths, you might want to check out experimental jetset. They made the original John&Paul&Ringo&George tees a few years back:

You've found your niche market. I'd totally wear it.

Sadly, I don't think they'd print it just for me

The flow doesn't work with the "&"'s... in the series it was a roll call "Pugh, Pugh Barney McGrew..." etc... if you add the "and"s it just aint the same, baby.

i've seen too many versions of the original for this to appeal.

Well, it appears threadless is turning into Digg…

I'm not surprised that most people (esp. non-UK) don't like/get it, but I am glad to see that a at least a couple of people out there do get it (BaronVonMonkey, Charliebird - thanks!). I know it's not original, and yes I know about the experimental jetset original - that's the whole idea - plewisdesign, see the last line of my comments (I too am an internet skim reader so I can hardly blame you for missing this).

Long live Trumpton!
