Brewer Bell Museum shirt designs
Sometime circa 1999, Jeff Mangum and his then girlfriend
Laura Carter personally did the artwork for 50 unique t-shirts which they sold
to benefit the Brewer Bell Museum in Canton, TX. Each of the 50 shirts featured
distinct hand drawn artwork. Jeff drew the pictures and Laura colored them in.
Pictured below are five of the unique designs. If you're lucky enough to own one of the other 45, please send in a
picture for inclusion on the site.
Owned by Virginia Belle Brewer (who passed away in 2005), the museum featured
all kinds of bells, and Jeff liked it enough to do this t-shirt fundraising
project for Ms. Brewer. The Brewer Bell Museum is now part of one of the city
museums in Canton, TX. For more info visit
