[Reclaimmayday] T-Shirts

[anna at phonecoop.coop]

How's this for a plan? (It's based on the idea that we're going with the printers with whom I've been corresponding - a workers' coop in Bingley who seem very tuned in to workers' rights etc and have the obvious extra benefit of being nearby. If we're not using them then please tell me right away so that we don't mess them about any more.)

Tonight post-midnight or earlyish tomorrow morning: Tony tots up the votes from the Facebook page and elsewhere and announces the result on this list. I tell the printers we definitely want them to do the job, confirm various details and put them in touch with the selected artist so that they can start work on the screen.

Saturday morning or Monday morning (depending on the printers' hours): Protag or I go to Bingley with a cheque and the T-shirts we're supplying. This may provide an opportunity to see the actual shirts.

Probably no point in going into further logistics now.

Anna

  I'd say tonys is ready as a tshirt design. We can make some fantastic poster/badges out of the others designs going around emails and fb.

  Any colour is fine. If people want a mayday tshirt then they'll but whats there on the day.

  If you don't get enough responses today then just go with your instinct Anna.

  Cheers, Lukas

Right. They can still do it in time if we only use one colour of print perT-shirt. (Can do part of the run with one ink colour and part with another,so that'll accommodate a bit of variety of shirt colour.)We need a decision, please, about which design we're using!! Not sure what'sthe best way of deciding it communally? Voting? Any ideas?Irena, if we use yours, are you ready with a "tidy" version, please? If weused Tony's for the T-shirts it might still make sense to use one of theothers for badges as Tony's might not be so suitable.Thanks.Anna----- Original Message -----From: <anna at phonecoop.coop>To: "List for organising Bradford May Day 2012"<reclaimmayday at lists.aktivix.org>Sent: Thursday, April 19, 2012 11:58 AMSubject: [Reclaimmayday] T-Shirts<
