Your Old Macs Honored in a New T-Shirt Design

The designer of the brilliant “PhotoShoplifter” t-shirt (see the pic after the jump) is back with a new design honoring old Macs.

Roger of RubyRed T-shirt Designs has created the “Sad Chimes Rest Home” shirt featuring three vintage machines that are loved but no longer used.

“Old Macs deserve more than ending up on the scrapheap after a life of creation and innovation,” Roger says. “Be sympathetic to your old Apple in its time of need, send it to the Sad Chimes Rest Home for retired and redundant Macs. A place where the Mac Classic and the G3 iMac can reminisce about operating system developments.”

More of Roger’s work after the jump.

Roger, who lives near Brighton, U.K., explains where he got the idea:

“I’m relatively well known for my parody designs, working with pop culture icons to create geeky images. My ideas are usually a bit random and normally come to me on the train on the way to work in Brighton. I’m a graphic designer and I use a Mac to do all my work, and for some reason or other, over the years I seem to have gathered quite a collection of old Macs. I normally try and sell the usable machines but the ones that are past their prime end up in my loft. It’s this collection in my loft that made me think about a rest home for the retired.”

The Sad Chimes shirt is available in a range of colors from Redbubble for about $26, plus shipping.

Roger is also responsible for the clever Photo Shoplifter tshirt.

And ‘The Revolution Will Not Be Podcast‘ shirt.

Here’s what it looks on someone slimmer than yourself.
