Disney Store Pulls Joy Division Mickey Mouse Mashup Tee Shirt - Boing Boing (! Got Mine Today)

Disney store offers, then pulls, Mickey t-shirt based on iconic Joy Division album cover - Boing Boing:

The Disney Store is now offering was, until January 25th, selling a new t-shirt design based on the iconic Joy Division "Unknown Pleasures" album cover, with Mickey Mouse's face inserted in those wavy lines. From Manchester to Mousechester! There was backlash, and it looks like the item is no longer available in the online store. But Joy Division/New Order bassist Peter Hook liked it. My copy came in the mail today. I'm pretty sure it's not original as I expect the real Disney shirt to have the logo on the shirt label. But for an instant meme, and a funny shirt, it's worth it. It will be reprinted at print-on-demand stores as this article goes to press. Related articles
