Slinky T-Shirts

The
t-shirt reads "Some people are like Slinkies. Not
really good for anything, but you can't help smiling when
you see one tumble down the stairs." Also known as a
Lazy Spring, the Slinky was invented by Richard James in the
1940's at his house in Philadelphia. With only $500,
he and his wife created the toy and were able to create a
powerful company from it. The Slinky t-shirts equate
the toy to people. It is a funny take on the classic
toy that moves without batteries. The best use of a
Slinky was dropping it down the stairs. It would crawl
on its own all the way down. Later, commercials were
created as well as Slinky t-shirts. A number of
different products were created from the one idea. |
