MISS Winners

We put some loot into a Philly Love Contest over at M.I.S.S. back in December. To play, hopefuls had to answer some basic Philly trivia. Anyone could enter, few could win.

The decision was so tough that the ladies ultimately turned over the responsibility of deciding a winner over to Magick Outlaw's infinite wisdom and jurisprudence, based on a very tricky Bonus Challenge:

In the interest of helping us write a song about Philadelphia, write down what you think of when you think about Philadelphia. The only requirements are that it has to be two lines, and the two lines have to rhyme.

The winners were Vida Vazquez with this entry:

I never seen so many neon colored weaves,
Philly’s under-rated you best believe

And Kim C.:

Feel like i’m running towards the sky as if i was rocky, Amanda Blanks nails claw ya out if anyones try’s to stop me
Mannequins around me because no one does anything, but Philly’s hood won’t get better unless we do something

Each winner takes home some assortment of goods from Fabric Horse, R.E.Load, Magick Outlaw and Fleathers.

Heads Up

You're probably pooped out from celebrating, but our pals at Magick Outlaw have a show of their incredible and I'll say it, zany, screen prints going up at the Art In The Age space in Old City tonight. This is the very same Magick Outlaw that's behind those fancy 59ers you've been drooling over. The show will probably be brighter, crazier and better than any other opening you've ever been to, so it would be worth crawling out of your post-holiday cave for. Mr. Pete Whitney writes, "Me and Joel and possibly even Don Vincent Ortega are gonna stop by there this Friday night the 2nd if you, like, want an autograph or something." So, there you have it.



Other exciting things out of Outlaw this holiday season include some sweet cycle relevant prints by print assistant Don Vincent Ortega, dear Philadelphia collectibles and a new shirt design that may remind you of someone you know.
