Via @gbfans comes this classy basic black tee from everyone’s favourite New York specialty bookstore. It’s a shame they didn’t stick closer to the logotype on the awning, as seen in Ghostbusters 2, but the shirt does look like a real store. A subtle – VERY SUBTLE – in joke shirt.
It’s interesting to point out that the t-shirt bears the fictional address seen on the prop business cards attributed to Ghostbusters 2, the real-world address is half a block down, between 31 and 33 St. Mark’s Place. The East Village is filled with little shops bearing 1/2 addresses, which would put Ray’s Occult at something like 31 1/2 St. Mark’s Place. I’ve been meaning to go over this one as a Shot On This Site. This might be the excuse I needed.
[UPDATE] Turns out Zazzle has another Ray’s Occult shirt on it (thanks Shodanmark) – this one was a design that originally appeared at Cafe Press, but was yanked at Sony’s request. And if the Doodle Vandal has his way, there will be a third soon!

But it is so expensive!
Yup. That’s American Apparel shirts for you. But that’s the only place to get them, so if it’s the kind of thing that a person digs, then their options are limited.
Click my name. This one’s better. I didn’t design it, but I’ve seen it before.
Nice. I prefer this one. I don’t mind the price because you can change the type of shirt you want it on and they have some cheaper versions.
Screw this. I’m going to make a proper one and sell it for less to you guys!
Shodanmark – yeah, that was one of the designs that Sony had pulled from Cafe Press last year or the year before, leading into their massive licensing push.
Not bad! They actually have police academy and zorin industries shirts, been wanting those since I was a kid.
There’s a more film accurate one here:

Better yet, someone design one, and make the graphic downloadable for us to use with t shirt iron on computer printer paper!
If you want I will do that! These t-shirts suck because they are taking advantage of fans by charging so much. I was planning to make one and sell it for cost – meaning that I wouldn’t make a penny. Or, as Gareee suggested I could post a high resolution image of the logo and folks could print their own? Maybe we could do a series. What do you think?
American Apparel isn’t what makes the shirt expensive. Many stores and designers use American apparel and the shirts cost no more than 18-20 around other places on the web. As much as I don’t like the company itself, their shirts hold up and are good value for their price.
just got one

Ray’s Occult was already covered by the NYGB Tour Guide site. The site was taken down last October, a victim of AOL’s massive shutting of member sites, but I do have two working copies of the site offline on my hard drive. Once I edit and fix all of the NYGB Comic Guide files, I’ll have a working offline copy of that, too.
