Blasts from the Past - The Cliffs of Moher Centre t-shirts by Celtic T-Shirt ShopThe Cliffs of Moher are a few miles away from us here in Lahinch and during the past 30 years we have made a few attempts to capture their iconic status in t-shirt design. Our most popular attempt is the recent t-shirt we are printing for the newly reopened state of the art Cliffs of Moher Centre. One of our designers, Vincent Wall, in a moment of inspiration added a splash of colour to the Centre's simple logo to merge it with the Irish flag creating a design that is extremely popular with visitors to the cliffs. These t-shirts can be bought at www.cliffsofmoher.ie/Facilities/BuyGifts.aspx?rowid=7775 |
