Ok, so this is a pretty weird one.
For the last few years, I've been obsessed with understanding the Coney Island culture of the early 1900s. I can blame this video for the beginning of my obsession.
The way I see it, if I could go back in time to anywhere in the world, I would go back to Coney Island during that early period. It just seems absolutely magical and even ethereal (check out pictures of Dreamland).
I've wanted to create a button up that properly embodies the carnival feel of early Coney Island for a while. The problem was, a lot of the artwork for early Coney Island is very old, but not out of copyright. I would find that some of the copyright holders would leave vague trails or were basically nonexistent. In 2020, I created a Bathing Clown Button Up shirt that used elements of expired copyright. It turned out ok, but I wanted to do better. My eyes were on this specific art piece (the one depicted on this button up).
In early 2023, I got my wish. The copyright officially expired, and I was free to use this artwork for this button up. It's been a long journey, but I think it was worth it. Coney Island is very inspirational to me. I hope that this button up properly demonstrates the zaniness and freedom of early American ingenuity.
