Long before Cafe Press, if you wanted customized clothing, you went to a T-shirt business in your town. They began springing up everywhere during the 1970s; they used a heavy-duty iron to press fuzzy letters to a shirt for you while you waited.
This is a shirt I had made at one of these shops when I was a teenager. Believe it or not, I wore it to school pretty frequently.
If only I'd managed to come up with that more recent quip, "I'm not weird, I'm gifted." Maybe then I could have started my own version of Threadless.
