Artwork on T-Shirts and Sweatshirts
We've never invested in any of the multitude of T shirts available, so apologies for some of the images presented here which are representative only and have in some cases been taken from the original adverts. Still, they give the general idea... Thanks to goth for a couple of the images... Fantaco
Fantaco / Dread
Fantaco (the company behind Fangoria and Gorezone) together with Dread (the first Clive Barker fan club) made a total of 19 different pieces of art available as T shirts between 1991 and 1993 (including the Paintings and Drawings and Books of Blood ones below). The short sleeve white shirts above (designs 1 - 10) retailed @ $14.95 and designs 11 and 12 @ $15.95. Certain of the designs were also available as long sleeve shirts at $19.95. When Dread folded its successor, Lost Souls, sold the remaining stocks as well as producing three of their own shirts.
