Derby #136: The New Vintage

Hey, this Derby's over. When you're finished reliving past glories, check out what's going on in the Derby right now. It's probably even cooler. Or at least newer.

For shirt-wearing enthusiasts, nothing beats scoring an awesome old t-shirt from a thrift store or vintage shop. Well, we don't have any vintage shirts to sell you. But we can jump on the fake vintage bandwagon, and jump we shall. This week, show us a shirt that looks like you found it on the dollar rack at Goodwill. The subject matter can be either retro or contemporary; if you've always dreamed about a '70s LOLcat t-shirt, you can haz it. But the look must be vintage, through the graphic style, the choice of fonts, distressed effects, or preferably all of the above. Wait a minute: "choice of fonts"? That must mean...

Text is permitted as part of a design with images or graphics. No slogan-only shirts.

No references to any video games about mustachioed Italian plumbers.

No references to any '70s blockbuster films about a struggle against a dark intergalactic empire.

And, of course, all of our rules about using other people's intellectual property are in full effect.
