New B-29 T-shirt

Mon Jun 27, 2011 3:16 pm

Due to popular demand, I've added a B-29 t-shirt to my ever expanding hangar of clothing at fritzthefox.com. Also added a Hurricane, for you anglophiles.

Anybody thinks of a plane they feel is under-served by the t-shirt world, sound off and I'll add it to my to do list.

Here's the B-29 art...

I hope the image is on the front rather than the back. Everyone prints the main image on the back now and I hate it.

How about an A-20 shirt?

Or a B-25 eight-pack nose gun shirt?


P-39 Shirt?

I am ready for either a L-6 or an AT-10 shirt. There has been a swelling of requests for these for years around here. Could sell upwards of ???????????????? or more.

Me, I'd like a low level, Tac/R flying RAF Allison engined Mustang Mk.I or Mk.IA.....where the legend began.

If you want a new design quickly you could tweak the B-29 into a B-50... Or a Tu-4... Or a C-97... Or maybe have it dropping an early X-plane...

Just wondering, did a B-29 ever shoot down a Mig?

That was the Skyraider, two shirts over :P



AFHRA shows 29 aerial victories claimed by B-29s - with notes to the effect that they are Korean war victories only. A quick search didn't show a breakdown of what types were claimed tho'.

Now about that Skyraider shirt....

Yes. However the MiG 15 shot down many more B-29s than the other way around, and forced the B-29 into night-ops for defence.

What he said. I don't know if the B-29 "No Sweat" seen in the illustration ever shot any down, but it WAS attacked by Migs, which ultimately led to its demise.

I didn't think a B-29 shirt with a flaming Superfortress on it would sell very well, though.

Need to expand your North Korean market stall outlet.

Or perhaps not...

Great T-shirts. Any chance you could do a custom B-29. My grand uncle was a Navigator on one and I thought it would be cool to have a t-shirt of his. While I'm at, what about an EA-3B in VQ-2 markings for my Dad's service on them?
