Tom Lehrer T-Shirt

Expected ship date: October 8

R.I.P.

Tom Lehrer was a big part of my childhood. He and my grandfather were both academics born in New York City in 1928, trained statisticians who then shifted into other disciplines, both staunch progressives. My dad is a fan, always humming a few bars of the applicable Lehrer tune when something relevant comes up. I went through a phase when the Tom Lehrer CDs in our house were all I wanted to listen to, which meant I was one of probably very few American 10 year olds who went into the new millennium knowing who Wernher Von Braun was (Once the rockets are up, who cares vere they come down?) 

I thought about designing something new, but this album cover is so cool and so well suited to screen printing that I found it cool enough to reproduce pretty much as it was.
