Where do I start, humm, there is a lot of material for tees in the
mythos.
The long winded titles of the albums suggest so much that I think
they would do well, just as themselves with only minor work. Try to
duplicate the original fonts, of course, but there is no need to
use color [additional expenses] or the artwork [if the rights would
require additional payment]. I work with the tee shirt mavin for
our local SF con and understand the traditional screening process
and the newer decal printing, I prefer the traditional screening
process for all that it does which is right for the customer.
Papoon for President -- Not Insane! One Organism - One Vote!
and other slogans from that campaign's set of planks.
Other choice phrases from the albums, such as:
He's no fun, he fell right over!
He broke the president!
[add your own!]
The Wall of Science comes to mind, would you like Steven Hickman (a
long time fan who is also an artist of some fame) to do an
illustration in B&W or grey scale representing that portion of the
mythos?
RMfOS needs a good panel done to illustrate several themes, do that
one as a wrap-around tee. Although very difficult to accomplish it
is a worthy project due to the channel switching nature of the
beast.
The pirate scene at the bar from Rat, if it is free and clear, on
the back of a tee with the name of the album on the front works
well to my mind.
Obv. something phlemic and olde english for the spear fans!
TV or Not TV needs a solid look and feel, I'm stumped for that one.
Eat or Be Eaten needs a color viney look, unfortunately that is
expensive with the traditional screening process. Gamers would love
that one if done right, very dense work.
What This Country Needs... with an introductory look and feel to
tie it all together.
Several of the old time medicine show prints in sepia on granite
tees.
Nino, of course, with illustrations of the lecture on what a hole
really is.
Pat Hat doing an interview... The fall into the hole... The march
into the hole or into obvious ubiquity.
The Going Out of Body Sale from GMIoGMD, the RS mantra from
HCYbiTPaOWYNAaA
Unconscience Village slogans come to mind.
Please, Lennon and Marx!

A lot of the obvious and good ones have been mentioned already, and
I'll second the suggestions for "Eat or Be Eaten", "Everything You
Know is Wrong", and the Marx/Lennon cover. And then there's...
Fudd's First Law:
If you push something hard enough, it will fall over.
Give me immortality, or give me death!
(Amongst a slew of astonishingly great album titles, this one may
actually be my fave.)
Front: Is that desert I smell behind your eyes?
Back: White Braynz on Toast
(or vice versa)
Oh my Duck, his pants have disappeared!
(Yeah, probably too pointless and obscure, but I like it.)
Hideo-Nuts Boltodrome
Where Robots' Rules of Order don't apply!
(And undoubtedly a thousand others.)

Ooo, I love it. My new first choice. The upside-down printing is
what puts it over the top.

Suggest:
Print "He's no fun." right side up & "He fell right over!" upside down.

I've always thought it would be neat if someone with talent did a design
for a cigarette package based on the old Pall Mall pack with the motto "In
Hoc Signo Vinces" on it.
The redesign would be a pack of Fantastics with the motto "Quid Malmborg
In Plano."
There's probably a way to use it on a box of Losseser's Castor Oil Flakes,
too.

Yes, stuff like EYKIW is too corny. I want obscurities.

Having just enjoyed this delicious Roller Maidens CD...
"Wanna know how to make an attractive bookend out of a shoe box and a brick?"
Perhaps with a little illustrative diagram, maybe a cut-away, showing
a shoe box with a brick inside it?

That is assuming a lot more than I would, some folks could manage that in the
right multiple interlocking corporation world schema.
