First I’ve seen or heard of this. Had I known at the time I would have uttered some discouraging words.

Me too! Those shirt sizes were so small... every time I find them on eBay, nothing ever fits me (and I usually wear a modern size medium!)

I can’t imagine that shirt selling at all after the big reveal.

I believe these shirts come from web stores that will print anything on a t-shirt for you if you submit an image. Copyrights do not seem to bother them.
