Scissors Throughout History T-shirt

Work license: Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 4.0 International

Scissors are a ubiquitous tool used throughout the ages in many parts of the world. Different types of scissors are hand-printed onto this comfy 100% cotton t-shirt. Along with the t-shirt, you receive a list that states where in the world each pair of scissors were found or come from and what year or era they were used in. If available, the size and type of scissor is also listed. 

Each design is block printed onto a Los Angeles Apparel 1801 Unisex t-shirt (please see size chart below for measurements).
100% Cotton
Made in USA

The t-shirt comes in full length (see size chart). 
I offer a hemming service on this design which means you can choose a length to have the t-shirt shortened to. Refer to the “custom hem measurement” illustration to see how to figure out the measurement you want. The hem is sewn using a 3-thread coverstitch.

Each shirt comes with a printed key telling which scissor is from where, from what year, and the size (if known).

Los Angeles Apparel 1801 measurements.
How a custom hem length is measured. For example, if you ask for a 20″ hem, the red line will be 20″ long.

The designs are individually hand-printed directly on the fabric. Therefore, the design placement might slightly differ from the original photos, which makes each piece unique.
Made with care with water-based non-toxic fabric paint that is heat set to resist fading.

RECOMMENDED CARE:
Turn your garment inside out and wash in cold water.
No bleach. Preferably hang to dry (or tumble dry on gentle and low heat).
Do not iron directly on print, use a press cloth (a piece of cotton fabric).
