Information: This brand of t-shirt emerged in the late 1970s as a general purpose blank. By the mid 1980s Spring Ford developed some ties within the music industry and they shifted focus to became one of the most popular choices for rock tees throughout the decade. The tag vanished in the mid 1990s but not before buying out the Touch of Gold brand in the early goings of the decade.

![[ LINK IN BIO ] In honor of May the 4th we connected with a gentleman named Shawn whose father, Ira, worked for ILM. He designed the Biker Scout, need we say more? Shawn shared an epic tale of a bootleg Star Wars tee his dad heroically stashed away despite George Lucas' attempt to have it destroyed.

RIP Ira Keeler. Long live the resistance.
