EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant print from the 1970s captures the essence of fashion and humor during that era. Titled "Fashion - 1970s: Tee hee Shirts" it showcases a trend where people would wear anything for laughs, resulting in the birth of the Tee hee shirt. This top-selling giggle garment became a must-have for trendies with an eye for quick sales, thanks to its fun designs that were all the rage. Bob Lange, a 28-year-old entrepreneur based in North London, played a significant role in creating many of these amusing designs. Alongside his brother, they ran a successful business catering to teenagers and young adults who couldn't resist their crudest yet hilarious creations. The shirts sold at £1.75 each proved to be lucrative enough for Mr. Lange to indulge in luxuries like smoking fat cigars and driving an expensive car. Intriguingly ambitious, Bob Lange shared his aspirations of retiring by the age of 30—a testament to both his entrepreneurial spirit and financial success within this niche market. This photograph not only reflects the fashion trends prevalent during this period but also sheds light on how humor found its way into everyday clothing choices. It serves as a nostalgic reminder of an era when wearing something outrageous was not just acceptable but celebrated with laughter and joy.
