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

This was the Play pro model tee we made for Todd Lyons in 1996. It says “I’m not a fighter. I just get into predicaments.” The artwork was drawn by Chris Hargrave and shows a muscle-head wearing a No Fear shirt lifting Todd into the air.

This was another variation on the original PLAY Clothes “P” logo that was released in 1995.

Leigh Ramsdell had three pro model tees with PLAY Clothes (the others were Ralph and Swiss Army Ant). This one from 1995 featured one of Leigh’s drawings of a guy sitting on the toilet. On the back was another Leigh doodle of a bag of groceries. In the catalog photo below, Leif

This was a transfer tee that had a marble pattern inside the original Play “P” logo. Available 1997.

This was one of Leigh’s three pro model tees with PLAY Clothes (others were Ralph and Toilet). It featured one of Leigh’s drawings that he called a Swiss Army Ant.

This 2B logo (the Sex Object Racing Jersey) was designed for racing team riders and went on to become a standard shirt available to the public. Artwork by Steve Buddendeck. Available in 1992.

A huge thanks to Heath Balderston who sent me a scan of the first year catalog of 2B Homecooked products. (It probably appeared in his zine Elastic Grunt.) The Tarsier was one of my favorite early designs. What the hell is a tarsier you ask? It’s a tiny primate from the rainfore

Released in 1994, the BMX Bandit tee shirt had to be one of our laziest shirts ever. It was a one color, one side shirt, and the phrase was merely a stolen movie title. Leigh is making an appropriately stupid face in this catalog photo. -Hal B

This was the first Play Clothes embroidered logo tee shirt. It looks like it says “plPay” which is kind of dumb now that I look back at it.

This was one of the first Play shirts and I also think it was one of the crappiest. Pretty ugly right? What was I thinking. This is Leigh posing for a 1994 catalog shoot. -Hal B
