I haven't posted here in a very very long time... However, I am now living in Tokyo and found something GR-worthy to post here. There is a graphic t-shirt shop in Ikebukuro called "graniph" (website http://www.graniph.com) which has really cool shirts -- including a "GR" t-shirt. http://www.graniph.com/t-shirts/t-shirts.php?J=1&C=13&ITEM_NO=157

You should take a look.

G.G. Lang would be a very sad man if he could see what was being done with Akzidenz-Grotesk.

I don't think there is an English translation. I'm not sure what you should do about that (I can't help you, unfortunately -- my Japanese is very basic).
G.G. Lang would have to join the club, I suspect; does anyone think that Che Guevara would much like having his face plastered all over bourgeous adolescents' torsos? (Or that "the Last Samurai" would appreciate having a movie about him with Tom Cruise in it?)
And lastly, I know this is just inviting trouble, but... What is "ryanate"?

Love that machine translation.

Okay, from what I can tell on the order form, you have to create a log-in identity first:

E-mail Address
Password
First Name
Furigana (for the first name)
Street Number (omit hyphens)
Prefecture (this is a pull-down list -- I think you may have to inquire specifically to order from America)
Address, Cont.
Telephone Number (omit hyphens)
Birthdate
Mailing List (left = yes, right = no)
Payment Method (something about cash on delivery, I think -- can't quite translate this; cash, debit card, credit card [choose one])
Comments

I'll try to ask about ordering from America.

If anyone is able to order from this place and ship to the US, let me know. This site has some great shirts.

I'm headed for Tokyo next month. Maybe I'll drop by one of their shops. 2100 Yen per shirt isn't too bad. I thought they'd be priced higher.

they have a special when you buy two shirts, it's something like 4000 yen. the shop downtown is nice but way too small for me.

Unfortunately, the people at the shop haven't yet e-mailed me back... It's a three-day weekend here in Japan, so I'll give them until next week to respond.

The ones I see in Tokyo aren't that great. The latest designs just aren't as fun as the ones from, say, a year ago. Not like they make them for gigantic crackers.
