hmm... maybe it's all about the O(SH)?



Good one Jimb'o'

Pinging The Wizard of Draws for a Million Dollar Idea!

Time to give those red 'Remove Before Flight' tops a run for their money, as
the best shirts at OSH. I do however like my 'Oshkosh Survivor' shirt -
white, not the tie-dye one. I bought it mostly because it had 2004 on it.

Note to shirt makers: I do not look at "anything" at OSH that doesn't have
the year on it. In 2003 I bought some shirts from the Ruskies at Sherpa
Planes. Shirt had Oshkosh 2003 on it and was only $5 ...out of the back of
an 8 place white plane with huge tundra tires.

I appreciate that you thought of me, but shirts are no longer offered by the
Wiz. The shop I was using was bought out and the new company will not
produce short runs. I could do Café Press, but the quality wouldn't be the
same and I'm not willing to sacrifice that. Additionally, the cost to make
it worth my time would make the shirts much too expensive.

Maybe if another silk screen shop out there is willing to do short runs with
good quality at a reasonable price...

It's all about the O(SH)

I think Jim's line is a winner. Think I'll make me up a shirt for OSH. Maybe
no artwork, just lettering from the Mall t-shirt store.

Wow -- that's great! (And it almost looks like an airplane. If you could
silhouette an aircraft behind the words, you'd have a best-seller!)

Wiz? You *sure* you don't want to sell these at OSH?

I forwarded the idea to Rusty Sachs, the head of EAA's NAFI Organization....
he immediately went to Overstock.com and started shopping for Overstocked
blondes!!

I think it would not be a good idea to try to market this. You'd be wide open
for a lawsuit.

How so? Not disputing, just curious why.

George may be right..... "Airventure" is probably copywrited by the EAA....
"it's all about the O" is probably copywrited by Overstock.com.
