A Story in T-Shirts is a brand new concept combining fashion and storytelling. A series of t-shirts are illustrated with key scenes from a story, so that they read like pages in a graphic novel. Collect all the t-shirts and you have the story!
Timeline 67 is written and illustrated by Fashion Designer Tracey Dockree and is the very first story to be presented as A Story in T-ShirtsTM . The t-shirt designs will be released as limited editions and all t-shirts will be individually numbered and signed by the designer.
The story and artwork for each t-shirt scene touches on one of the dark issues affecting society today and is dedicated to a charity addressing it. The selected charity receives 50% of profits from any product with related artwork on it.
Printed to order as a limited edition by the highest quality textile digital printer in the UK, they are signed and numbered by author/illustrator Tracey Dockree and registered on a secure database so that you know you have the original t-shirt and not a copy.
It is estimated that there will be 12 chapters altogether with 5 t-shirt scenes per chapter. Each chapter takes a few months to create so rather than wait a few years for the complete series to be finished, the story will be released a chapter at a time. I anticipate that each new chapter will be released with 5 new scenes every few months or so.
