the PLAY Clohes embroidered logo shirt

PLAY Embroidered Logo Sweatshirt

This embroidered logo appeared on hats and tee shirts but was primarily used for hooded sweatshirts (1996-1999). This one of my favorite Play items for its simplicity. I wore one of these hoodies for many years. -Hal B

the Triceratops tee by PLAY Clothes 1997

Triceratops Tee Shirt (PLAY)

I drew this design in January of 1997. I know because it says so on the miniature text on the triceratops’ head. There are hidden messages all over the artwork (see a closeup below) including one paragraph that says the first person to send in a photo of themselves wearing this

the BMX Bandit tee shirt by Play Clothes
