Wanderlust T-Shirts

Featured only in the Summer 1985 catalogues and the updates these Wanderlust shirts are very rare now, the below example the only one I’ve seen. There were three designs celebrating great adventures: The Odyssey which has a Robert Louis Stevenson quote on the back: “To travel hopefully is a better thing than to arrive.” , Stanley’s Search for Dr. Livingstone which has the John Steinbeck quote “We don’t take a trip…a trip takes us.”, and Magellan’s Voyage with the Mark Twain quote: “Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry, and narrow-mindedness.”

From the catalogue. “While Columbus sailed the ocean blue, his contemporary, Miguel de Cervantes sat home with quill in hand. “Journey all over the universe in a map,” Cervantes advised the armchair adventurer. Our Wanderlust T-Shirts, depicting three of the most celebrated and romantic journeys in history, permit the modern wanderer to peregrinate the globe or to navigate his dreams while swathed in fine 100% Italian cotton knit. Maps are on front, travel quotes on back.”
