Behind Every Great Man...
...Is a great woman. Or, in this case, four.
I originally made this t-shirt (a satire on the Experimental Jetset tee, “John& Paul& Ringo& George.”) with iron-on letters, as some kind of “f-ck you” to the tiresome musical snobs who fawn over male deities like The Beatles and forget the numerous women in rock – and also as an in-joke between my partner and I, who both always say “Yoko was the best Beatle”.
So many people asked me where I got the tee that I decided to make a finished version for you lovely RedBubble types.
And no, it’s not Helvetica, but just like we don’t really need another t-shirt glorifying The Beatles, do we really need to let Helvetica get any more out of control than it already is?

Some people can appreciate the Beatles for what they were, recognise the names without reading the title or description, think that Paul is way over-rated, like great women in rock, and know that this and liking the Beatles are not mutually exclusive.
