[GRASS-PSC] recommendation for t-shirt order

Wed Mar 19 01:15:29 PDT 2025

Hello Jeff, hello PSC,

maybe of interest regarding vintage GRASS apparel: A few years back, Marji Larson shared a pyhsical GRASS t-shirt from the USA-CERL era (1980s/early 1990s). Marji is the original author of r.grow. She  was super supportive when the backstory of the GRASS 1987 video was researched. The shirt was never worn and has been duly framed, but this doesn't help reuse in our community. As the Zenodo Open Access Repo now allows to collect and curate physical objects, a scan of the vintage GRASS t-shirt is now available here: 

https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.15047761 (CC-BY)

I tried to reach Marj for details about when/where/why these t-shirts were created, but haven't heard back.

Does anybody have more information on this ? This would be useful input for the metadata @ Zenodo :-)

Best,
Peter
