We’ve been busy little beavers, getting back into production on all your favorite Coop stickers, but we’ve taken a moment to add a new sticker to the roster: Behold, Mickey Finn! This little fella comes from the stencil portion of Coop’s GIRLS/PILLS/GRILLE painting (part of the New Works show up through June 20th at the Corey Helford Gallery). You guys went nuts for the image, so we went into production on the stickers. Get ‘em now - they are awesome!

Unfortunately, that bumps the price up to $100 per, instead of the $75 we had been charging. Never fear, all you who bought early: we will OF COURSE honor the price you paid! Plus, the posters look amazing - and they will begin shipping next week. Sorry for the change in plans, but hey life just hits you sometimes. We do our best to take care of you guys - and you gotta admit we do keep telling you to order early!

But that doesn’t mean you can’t do ANY shopping - crikey people are still having birthdays and you know we all gotta wear clothes! In our latest efforts to keep the Coop flowing, we’ve marked down our custom-made (in USA of course) Dickies style Wrench Devil shirts. Are they work shirts, bowling shirts, or car show shirts? You tell me. All we know is that they’re beautifully made, lovingly embroidered, and down to a cool 50 bucks (from 62), and they’ll stay that way for the duration. Why not go grab one? Summer’s just around the corner and these 100% cotton shirts are just the ticket to get you through in style.

Response to these was great, and we’ve sold through the run already. Not sure if there will be any more, or if there will be new designs, but you can officially put these into the past tense - Still a couple of the “real” guitar pickguards in stock (hint, hint) but those are limited too, so don’t take TOO much time deciding!
