I have recently gained interest in buying a vintage 70s/80s Computer T-Shirt. However, they are all either XL, very expensive, or just worn out.

Realizing that I can probably make my own, I would like to ask anyone with great logos to post a link or reference to it.

Some of my options are:
- Amiga
- Commodore
- Microsoft
- Apple
- IBM

Which ones were the coolest at the time, and which ones are available in high enough res to perform such an undertaking?


Thanx,

Ugh..there's a web site that has TONS of hi-res logos. I don't have the URL here, but I think it's a .ru site. They have .EPS files, etc.

I have a black Atari T-shirt. There's a store that sells all kinds of old 70s and 80s tshirts nearby.
