UPDATE -both Trailhead and Mountain Equipment Coop are now selling these shirts.
The museum no longer has any in stock.
The shirts have gone to a second printing and new colours are in vogue (specifically men’s is a blue now, not white).
UPDATE – Free shipping by the Museum now ended, now $3 for one, $5 for two.
This handsome tee-shirt not only proclaims your pride in past trail names like Frank’s and Alexander but raises money for the Ski Museum as well. Depicting 1920s skiers on the street in Old Chelsea the shirt adds names to today’s numbered trails. Buy online at $24.99 and get free shipping* (the Museum is a charity so there’s no HST – yippee!)

I wanted to add that I personally don’t profit from the sale of this shirt (nor from the 1967 map that I have been publicizing). Revenue above cost goes to the Canadian Ski Museum.
At some point in the future if the shirt shows up in retail outlets, they of course will include a margin. That said, Trailhead, Fresh Air and Bushtukah all assisted in selling the 1967 maps without it generating any revenue for them. MEC assisted too by displaying a copy and directing interested customers to the Museum.
Is there something written at the back of the shirt?
The image shown is on the back. The front is blank (at least in the two that I got).
When I picked them up at the Ski Museum on Tuesday I was told they were nearly sold out already.
