Bi-coastal t-shirt

August 9, 2006 1:18 AM

Do you know where I can find this "California/New York/Other" t-shirt? Possibly a Paul Frank design?

On a flight from NYC to LA several months ago, I spotted a guy with a really cool t-shirt that had an outline of the USA on the front. In the appropriate spots, there were outlines of California and New York. Everything else was one big state labelled "Other." I had planned to ask my bi-coastal travel companion where he got the shirt, but he disappeared into the crowd after we de-planed. Since then, I have been looking all over it. The only reference to it that I can find (an Ebay "Want It Now" post from someone else who is searching for it) implies that it is a Paul Frank design. I have no idea if this is really the case as I have not been able to find it on any sites or in any stores where Paul Frank is sold. Does anybody out there know where I can find this shirt? Thank you!

It's definitely a Paul Frank shirt (I remember seeing it some time ago). I'll see what I can find.

Hm, couldn't find it. But, I've narrowed it down to Paul Frank Select (some fancy offshoot for novelty tees). Good luck.

You might want to call Wishbone in SF. They probably don't have it in the store, but perhaps can give you a lead on where to get it.

You mean like this?

geoff - Good effort, but that's RUSSIA. Not sure if that was snarky political commentary (if so, well played) or a misdirected link. But, as it happens, I've already gone through the entire soliscompany.com site.

No I just assumed there would be more but I did not have time to go through solis's entire site.

I have that shirt, but got it from the Paul Frank store in SoHo. Occasionally they do t-shirts that are only printed up for a limited out of time so you may, unfortunately, be out of luck and I know a lot of the stock is hard to find on the internet. That's not really that helpful. Sorry.
