Time For Tea

These aren’t so much kit but a kitsch novelty homeware item.

10 oz ceramic mugs with artworks we’ve featured on Dave Carroll London label clothing in recent years.

The first is the Blockbuster (Fuck You Skull) design which is our version of the embroidered satin back-patch a member of The Sweet (band) wore on European television in the 1970s, we’ve paired it with Rock’n’Roll Swindle in a Let it Rock font…

Pure novelty yet functional is the Heat Activated Anarchy mug that reveals the artwork once you pour hot liquid into it. On one side is the Anarchy Skull which we featured on a collaboration sweatshirt in 2020 and on the other is American footballer Maurice Spencer as he was photographed for a 1970s calendar and then appeared on the punk rock t-shirts pictured below.
