We at Chop Shop are dedicated to the continued listening for signs of other life coming from deep space. We are running out of new alien icons to update our alienWe shirt and are always in need of new references. We surely don’t want to miss ET’s phone call… he may have some friends to add.

In addition to 2011 being the 50th anniversary of manned spaceflight — today is the final launch of the US Space Shuttle program which began with the first launch of Columbia in 1981. Above is the Shuttle Program as it is depicted on our “AboveEarth” tshirt which celebrates the long history of Earth/Space exploration. The Shuttle is also seen docked in the icon representing the Soviet/Russian Mir space station (1986).
Get “AboveEarth” in time for the shuttle landing to ring in what we hope is the next phase of manned space exploration.
In honor of the 50th anniversary of Yuri Gagarin’s historic first manned mission into the great beyond… we are making our next iconic collection tshirt available for pre-order. 23 historic missions of man’s exploration of space from the very first satellites to man’s first permanent outpost in Earth orbit.
Pre-Order it for Men on American Apparel’s Black, Navy or on Alstyle Black and for Women on American Apparel Black.

Design of choppingblock.com circa 1998. Part of the Chopping Block series of “identity crisis” designs. This one borrows from graphic language dating back to the golden age of manned spaceflight.

Tshirts are great. You can print on them, put them over your torso and they help keep you modest and warm. The only real issue with them is that they are not the best canvasses for the smaller details. Most of the icons designed for Chop Shop’s SciFi, Horror/Fantasy and Rock Music series of tees include a level of detail that is simply lost when printed on tshirt fibers.
Enter the Science Fiction Collection. A high quality screened poster featuring icons of 61 robots, 58 aliens and 30 various vehicles. Altogether adding up to a staggering 149 icons to contemplate while you really should be speding some quality time with your family. Exclusive to the poster are 14 icons that have not (as of this mailing) been included on any of the 3 scifi tshirt reprints (see above). The piece itself is printed in 3 colors, screened on a 14″x36″ sheet of 80lb poster stock and comes in your choice of black or white.
Remember there is also the Horror and Fantasy Screen Print featuring another 149 icons. See the special set offer at right.
