Design Description
For a century, anyone looking for a gay time in Ohio would be pointed to Chippewa Lake Park. A beloved amusement park located along the shores of Chippewa Lake in Medina County, Ohio, Chippewa Lake Park entertained generations of visitors from 1878 to 1978. Originally established as a lakeside picnic and recreation area, the park grew into one of northeastern Ohio’s favorite summertime destinations, featuring wooden roller coasters, a Ferris wheel, a carousel, Tumble Bug, a swimming beach, boat rides, and a lively midway. Its famous ballroom hosted legendary big bands and entertainers, making the park as popular with adults as it was with children. For decades, Chippewa Lake Park was a favorite destination for family outings, company picnics, and summer vacations, earning the nickname “Ohio’s Family Playground.” Unfortunately, declining attendance and competition from larger amusement parks led to its closure in 1978, exactly 100 years after opening. Rather than being immediately demolished, much of the park was left abandoned, its rusting rides and crumbling structures slowly disappearing beneath decades of overgrown vegetation, creating an eerie time capsule of a bygone era of American amusement parks that can still be seen today.
Product Details
Like all our designs, this one is treated with our signature ‘relic-ing’ process which includes our own secret recipe of hand-painted chipping, cracking, fading, and just the right touch of yellowing to ensure that it looks the part of a true vintage imprint.** We lay these works of art down on premium Bella+Canvas 3001 Unisex Jersey Short Sleeve Tees, one of the softest, best-wearing t-shirts available today, via state of the art direct to garment (DTG) printing which allows us to create a vintage effect that simply can’t be accomplished with other printing methods. In short, these shirts are everything you’ve dreamed of and more – it feels soft and lightweight with just the right amount of stretch, making it comfortable and flattering for both men and women.*Heather CVC Colors: 52% Airlume combed and ring-spun cotton, 48% polyester, 32 singles, 4.2 oz. Athletic Heather and Black Heather CVC: 90% Airlume combed and ring-spun cotton, 10% polyester, 32 singles, 4.2 oz. Heather Prism Colors: 99% Airlume combed and ring-spun cotton, 1% polyester, 32 singles, 4.2 oz. Heather Prism Blue: 90% Airlume combed and ring-spun cotton, 10% polyester, 32 singles, 4.2 oz. **Due to the nature of the printing process and different sizes of shirts offered, imprint position and scale may vary slightly from the product images, but we do our best to be as accurate as possible. Screen colors may vary due to differences in screens. Due to the natural nature of cotton, whites may appear off-white rather than bright white. Size Chart
Not sure what size is your best fit? We recommend taking one of your current t-shirts, laying it flat and measuring it. The measurements in the chart below are taken with the shirt laying on a flat surface. To get the length, measure from the high shoulder point down to the bottom of the shirt. To get the width, measure approximately 1-inch below the armhole, across the chest, from seam to seam. While our tees are all made using premium, pre-shrunk, ring-spun cotton, there can be some shrinkage depending on your personal wash and dry cycles. With that said, if you’re on the fence, we always suggest going up a size.
All sizes are provided in inches! Please note that variations in sizing of up to 1.5 inches are possible.
