Photos from T-shirt Day – Lots of Great Pittsburgh T-shirts

Last Monday – some of Pittsburgh biggest t-shirt fans gathered at OTB Cafe to celebrate International T-shirt Day 2010 – while this day was in celebration of all t-shirts – it was amazing to see that everyone showed up in their finest Pittsburgh t-shirts.  And we had an amazing collection of Pittsburgh t-shirts that we raffled off.

Here are some of the shirts that Commonwealth Press offers – you can buy these shirts at their shop on Carson Street or online at CompressMerch.com

Pittsburgh T-shirt Day started with some screen printing demos at Commonwealth Press – anyone who stopped in could print one of their own T-shirt Day Shirts with a quote from Ben Franklin.
