With a modest beginning of just 9 graphic tees on a one-sided line sheet in 1999, retailer Upper Playground altered the notion of “wearable art” with its long standing t-shirt collection.  Next month, Upper Playground will mark the program’s 10th year with an archive – a 612-page hardcover book of documentation by Gingko Press, highlighting nearly every single graphics and artist ever feature on Upper Playground’s t-shirt.
