UK Seller jarofbees and posi numbers attendee, has this pretty rare TOHC Fanzine shirt. I say its rare, because almost any shirt that a FANZINE prints is rare. There’s a good number of people I know that a) never got one of these shirts b) chickened out cuz the image is straight up too scary!

Two small anecdotes on this shirt, that represent what it means to me. First show I ever performed was in Montreal, and I wore this shirt over a blue champion hoodie. I wanted everyone to know that I’m not afraid to say I’m from Toronto living in Montreal. Secondly, I got asked to do some manual labour job around my office on a Friday at work, and I was wearing this shirt under business casual attire, and I was gettin too hot, so I of course had to remove the heavy layer and rep a shirt with an asian looking dude getting his neck wringed by one of God’s loving creatures.

If you buy this shirt I hope you are a) from Toronto, b) have every edition of the printed zine c) can fit a size small
