About my design

by Friendly Fire
Perhaps the world's first international man of mystery, Benjamin "The Pale Fury" Franklin (as he was known by his peers), fought secret battles on behalf of George Washington and the fledgling U.S. Nation, thus becoming a figure of larger-than-life proportions. His enemies often cried "Damn you Franklin!" whilst his enemies' girlfriends often cried, "Ooooooh Benji!"

Ah, just what I have been looking for! A shirt that celebrates Benji Franklin and all his great accomplishments, including the power to slay women with a single glance! I definitely want one.

Finally, someone has the balls to come out and paint a historically accurate portrayal of ol' B. Franklin.







P.S. Make it just a smidge bigger.

awesome! super rad.



I'd just like to see a little more color or emphasis on the turkey's beak and face. I had to look hard to realize he wasn't riding a headless turkey.



In fact, a couple more colors overall would give this a lot more "pop".

I agree, make it a bit bigger.



As a frequenter of Philly, I really feel that I need this shirt.

You should have made a more distinctive bird his riding on and I think this design would have recieved a higher score!
Uncle_Max
Uncle_Max on Sep 16 '09
What could be more distinctive than a turkey, which Franklin wanted to make the national symbol (instead of the eagle)?



Also, THREADLESS WHY AM I NOT WEARING A SHIRT WITH BEN FRANKLIN RIDING A TURKEY AND WIELDING A LIGHTING GUN?
MyPretty96
MyPretty96 on Sep 16 '09
I am heartbroken that this did not become a shirt. I need to be wearing this. Or, at least to have it framed somewhere in my home.
