We've got some pretty darn exciting news for you guys and gals!

We all know them and I'm sure we all love them! Roald Dahl's amazing body of work has been with us for as long as we could possible remember.

Not only would today have been today Dahl's birthday and also the official celebrated Roald Dahl Day, but this years also sees the 50th anniversary of one of his most infamous classics Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. Wowza!

Last year we took a dive into the life and time of Roald Dahl himself with our 10 Facts You Didn’t Know About Roald Dahl, this year we've decided to take a look back at his work and pick out some of our top quotes from some of his all-time classic quotes.

Enjoy!

A new delivery of Out Of Print T-Shirts is always an exciting prospect and we are very proud to present to you a couple more classics to add to your collection!  Out of Print features iconic and often out of print book covers. Some are classics, some are just curious enough to make great tshirts, but all are striking works of art.  Best of all, for each product sold one book is donated to a community in need through our partner Books For Africa.

Our first shirt is inspired by Bram Stokers Dracula and features cover art from the 1927 Grosset & Dunlap StagePlay edition set against a vintage red tee.

When asked about the meaning of the lighthouse, Virginia Woolf responded, “I meant nothing by The Lighthouse. One has to have a central line down the middle of the book to hold the design together."  This wonderful tee from Out Of Print features the the first edition cover for Virginia Woolf's To the Lighthouse.
