15.002 reminds me of a particular publisher of choral music in whose music you will find a different anti-photocopying message on each page. It used to provide my (very bored) choir with hours of enjoyment (we were young).
I don't get it. Am I supposed to try to guess who made that shirt? Or do you mean the Roy Preston one?
Anyway, I think it's bad to try to publicly (sp?) guess who made which shirt before the winner is declared. But since it could be so much fun maybe you should allow a short lag between choosing the winner and annoucing which one it is, so that in the interim we can try guessing. And the person who guesses the most gets a free shirt. Deal?
I agree, Jason, 15.006 front and 15.006 back would both be better as two different shirts.
Many of the shirts would do better if they were greatly simplified. Just distilled down to one distinct concept. (This principle is not new, nor is it unique to shirts...)

Is it "typophile" spelled with an HTF "ornaments" font?
BTW, "the anonymous person": I know who you are.
Which makes me think: what if we had a contest to see who can identify the most designers (by looking at their designs)?

the back of no. 6 would be the best in this lot as a front. too disconnected with the front anyway.

Haha! It keeps getting better...

I don't recognize the ornaments. (It's not
Hoefler Text Ornaments, anyway).

How did I miss 15.006? Nice.
