Dear Friends,To commemorate Matador's barely legal status (ie. we're celebrating our 18th this year), we're commissioning a series of t-shirts. Though the garments are meant to be vaguely label/logo insipired, but we're hoping for something a bit more inspired that our previous designs (though that said, the Matador "that's italian" shirt still goes for crazy loot on eBay).
The shirts will be printed in a limited run of 200 per design, with each designer receiving $250.00 (USD) plus 20 shirts to be peddled or given away as he or she sees fit. In turn, Matador will flog the remaining shirts for a sum to-be-determined, but it'll probably be on the pricey side of things.
The selected designs will be available for viewing on the Matador site & blog for advance purchase, though they'll also be available from select retailers. We'll provide links to the individual designers' websites, too.
Knock yourselves out. Thank You.

Mark Ohe’s mailbox is currently full and he’s having trouble emptying it – a casualty of our office move.
In the meantime, send your emails to artstation@matadorrecords.com.
Thanks,
