WorldCon 2014: Limited Edition T-Shirts for Loncon 3


Mr. X

Recommended Posts

As we have done for the past three WorldCons, we are making a limited run (print to order) of t-shirts that will be available to BWB members who are attending Loncon 3 (a.k.a. London WorldCon) next month. If you can't make it to WorldCon but want a t-shirt, there is nothing stopping you from bribing an attendee to order, buy and pick one up for you. The details of that arrangement are between you and your fellow boarder. (Oh, and you'll likely get better results by bribing someone other than Xray or me.)


This year's shirt features the raven tree. Here are links to the artwork (on a generic t-shirt template, to give you an idea of placement): the front, a detail of the front artwork, and the back.


The shirts are black and the printing is in purple and white. The design on the front is by Hugo nominee Raya Golden, a longtime BWBer who did the art for our last two WorldCon shirts as well as the Meathouse Man comic (which is nominated for the Hugo for Best Graphic Story).


The back of the shirt will have the following printed on it, as shown in the back image above:

We will be using Gildan SoftStyle men's and women's t-shirts. Sizing charts can be found here and here. Please email me if you have questions about sizing. In the past, people found that the sizes tend to run small, so you may want to take that into consideration. We have used these shirts for three years now, so anyone who bought one in Reno, Chicago, or San Antonio can add their advice about the sizing below.


To print the shirts, we are returning to Works in Progress NYC, a silk screening company that also operates a non-profit internship program for high school students. More info here. (And then I'm going to haul them over to London in my luggage, which will explain the "Why is Mr. X wearing the same outfit every day of the con?" mystery.)


You can order the shirts by emailing me (address below) with the quantity and size(s) you would like. Please specify men's or women's in the order.


You can pay me for the shirt at the con OR VIA PAYPAL (PM or email me for details), which is where I will also give you the shirt(s). The price is 12 GBP (or $20 for those of you coming from the USA). If you have questions about payment (currency issues, PayPal, etc.), ask me via email. Any profits will be rolled into the BWB general fund.


THE DEADLINE FOR ORDERS IS 11:59PM (EST) ON THURSDAY, JULY 24TH!


Either post your name, shirt size, and quantity of shirts in this thread or email them to MisterX AT brotherhoodwithoutbanners DOT com. I'll keep a list here of people I've heard from so you know I have your order.

We would like a women's small and a men's medium, please. :) (It may be too late to point out that the correct case of Loncon is Loncon, not LonCon: Loncon 1 and Loncon 2 predated the fad of capitalising the central C, so Loncon 3 also has no central capital.)
