I need some ideas on what you would like to see on shirts that we could sell. I have a few but could always use some input.
Thanks,
Deanne

I think the older AC brochure graphics are interesting. Most of them were not actual photos, but hand painted scenes. Here are a few of my favorites. 
There are a couple more graphic advertisement pictures that I like, but I can't seem to find them at the moment.
One is a picture of an AC 190xt & plow making a turn at the end of the field while a school bus drops off the kids on the adjacent rural road in the background. Im sure someone on here has a copy of it. Or, you could do a search on this site for sales brochures and probably find it.

I have a series of shirts almost custom made for the basic Allis Chalmers Tractors I sold, the B, C, CA, G, WC, WD, and WD45. They are pocket T shirts with AC on the pocket - the old diamond - and the tractor on the back. They are good quality grey shirts. Two of my favorates that I wear here at least once a week are shirts with a F-1 1948 Ford pickup on the back and the other a farm scene with an Cockshutt Tractor red and John Deere B in orange. I would love to have those shirts duplicated. There was a person - Dennis - who made those tractor shirts for me exactly as I asked. I'll look and see if he is still around. Good Luck! Bill Long

I just hate to see the same old B/C/CA/WC/WD on EVERYTHING. I like those tractors and all, but would like to see more of the D series or a 220FWA shirt......and 8070 or 7080 would be cool as well

Il second Don on the hundred, 7000 or 8000 series. I found a shirt with a 7060 on it a few years ago and it was in my size! I couldnt grab it fast enough. I have never seen another one.

I'm moving this string up so I will have time to look up my suplier. He did such a great job I wanted to give him an opportunity to make the same for you. He can make anything he has a picture for, so if you want whatever he can do it including watches with a B or other tractor on them and a bunch of other stuff. He sent me coffee mugs with AC diamond Logo, and a coffee mug holder with AC diamond logo. Good Luck! Bill Long

The new Allis Triangle was always my favorite. Plain, simple and always a crowd pleaser. I think this one would bring you the most sales. My 2 cents. Thanks for asking!

Those artist paintings look like Russell Sonnenberg's work. I'd like to see more D series and 100/1000 series too. Just about all versions of the W series and B and C have been done.

What about cartoon style scenes, like the old hot rod shirts. I will be wearing my recently made POWERCRATER Engines shirts to Dale's show.

I came up with this idea forever ago and would like to see someone do something with it. It would have to be apporved by the admin on this site but I think it has potential. I've met several people at shows that say they would've loved to have known about the forum when they were restoring their tractors and I believe this would be a good way to give the forum some popularity. The front could have either the triangle logo like I have posted or the diamond one that way it would not be the same tractors being put on a shirt and you would still be given a choice of logos. If someone can get these produced I can gaurntee you that I will be buying one.

I imagine Darin would sell his own shirts if he wanted to do this.

Here is an idea for the B fans out there. Put this together with a photo I took at Dale's show last year. High Crop B Asparagus Special. Used a fitler technique to make the image look like a painting or rendering. Might make this into a shirt for Dale's this year. Your thoughts?

I really like this. A shirt like this would be great for shows/pulls. I have met several members at shows and a a shirt like this would make it easy to pick out a person I have not met yet. For forum members only???
