From the Archives - Plaything Tee
Our "Plaything" t-shirt features a captivating design inspired by Jim Ivey's original artwork from 1971. In this illustration, a cheerful, conventionally-dressed man playfully tosses a ball that resembles a battered and beaten globe. With a powerful message, this design hints at the whimsical nature and seeming indifference of ordinary Americans towards the world's precarious situation. Wear this thought-provoking tee and make a statement about the complexities of our world, all while sporting a unique piece of artistry.
