Title: Auto Haus Westminster and other rare T-shirts...
Post by: Fastbrit on July 27, 2009, 08:47:46 am
Just been clearing out a room here and came across some old T-shirts of mine. Thought you might like to see them before they disappear into the depths for a few more years! :)
First up - Auto Haus Westminster Tee...

These shirts looks a lot better to me than a lot of the offerings around today.

Great stuff, Keith! Haven't seen one of those Westminster Auto Haus or Head Shop shirts in ages. At the last Bug-In held at O.C.I.R. I bought two event shirts... one that I wore and one that's still unused in the bag, like yours. Good to see others keeping that stuff.

I used to have one of the beige Lonnie Reed shirts. His shop was on my way to work when I worked at the BAP/Geon in Santa Ana. Used to stop in there often.

well we should have more t-shirts with a front pocket like some have (just to put you smokes, even if you don't smoke those pockets look so cool and soooo 70's)


Kobus, Fred, Mike are you reading this ???  ;D

I hear ya, loud & clear, Nicolas. I've been wanting to print front/left pocket t-shirts for years. I still have many of 'em from the old days (surf, skateboard, VW, Porsche, aircraft, etc.). The reason that I don't is because most people don't care for them. Sometimes, you can still find the right color and size with the front pocket at the t-shirt vendors.

I agree, been on a pocket t-shirt kick myself for a while now.  That's what I love most about my Berg shirt—it has a pocket!  I like to imagine Gene writing the tech instructions saying "clearly we have found a shirt should have a pocket, unlike our competitors' shirts where this detail has been overlooked."

Anyone notice that the pic I used for the AHW t shirt is the same from the DRA T shirts.  I believe the pic has been posted here a couple of times.  I still have the original photo.  The DRA shirt was a high contrast photo version.  The AHW was a line art version that Bob Chapman did for me.  Still one of my favorite all time shots.  The cars in the pics were my split window and Frenchy's small window.  I'm thinking about resurrecting the picture in some form in the near future.

Thank God for you, John. Oh... & I see what you did there.
