ARCHIVE TEE // 07 [OG RANMA]

DESCRIPTION:

Recovered from an early pre-archive apparel record.

Before the familiar front-print version became the one most fans recognize, there existed an earlier configuration: the same iconic graphic, but printed on the back of the garment. Produced during Glassjaw's earliest years (before the Don Fury sessions and before the band's visual identity had fully settled) this version has become one of the more elusive pieces of the band's history.

The Bureau located an original reference specimen and reconstructed every graphic as faithfully as possible, preserving the layout, proportions, and placement that distinguish this first iteration from the later, more commonly reproduced version.

If you've seen modern reproductions of this design, chances are you've seen the later front-print layout. This is something different: a historically accurate recreation of the earlier back-print configuration, intended to capture what a fan might have picked up at a local show during Glassjaw's formative years.
