one of the few companies in the USA that offers iron-on lettering to customize your shirts
with individual names, numbers or sayings. We did the promotional shirts for Playboy and
the t-shirts used in the remake movie "The Amityville

numbering and apply it yourself, we can provide transfer paper & instructions.
