"Heaven and Hell" is a reversible limited edition t-shirt and print that's new from Los Angeles design and ad firm Meat and Potatoes. Created for a celebrity lounge at the 2006 Billboard Music Awards in December, the four remaining from the event will be auctioned to benefit Meals on Wheels today, 26 January 2007, at 4pm EST on Ebay.

Philadelphia-based design studio Print Liberation carries a line of tees, prints, and accessories that will make any font nerd swoon.

Shari Sakahara is an LA based graphic designer who won one of our Camonanos last month. As a thank you she sent us one of the hoodies that she makes and sells. How we missed this before, I don't know, but I'm glad to see it now. Why advertise your alma matter or home town on your hoodie when you can hype your favorite...
