I Found It. It Was a Penny: Month End Close Accountant Tee

The reconciliation was out. The search took the whole evening. The variance was one cent. Hours spent are not proportional to the amount and never have been, and the relief at finding it is completely real and slightly embarrassing.

Read from outside it is somebody being wry about picking a coin up off the pavement. Charming, small, and with no accounting anywhere in it. This is the only line in the set with a story in it rather than a term, and it is bought by the person who was waiting for them to come to bed.

The coin above the type is drawn from scratch in stipple, one ink: a milled edge and a blank field. No portrait, no denomination, no date. A coin as a shape rather than a currency.

What it is

• Unisex softstyle tee, 4.5 oz/yd² (153 g/m²)
• 100% ring-spun cotton in the solid colors. Sport Grey is a 90% cotton, 10% polyester blend, and Dark Heather is 65% polyester, 35% cotton
• Double stitched neckline and sleeves, side seamed, tear away label
• Sizes S through 3XL
• Fourteen colors. Seven light ones printed in near black ink, seven dark ones printed in cream

Where it comes from

Custom printed in the USA. Every shirt is printed here, one at a time, on a soft cotton blank woven overseas.

Nothing is printed until you order it, so nothing sits in a warehouse and nothing gets thrown away.

Getting it to you

Free US shipping on orders $45 and up. Under that it is a flat $8.00. We make it after you order it, which takes 2 to 5 business days, and it then takes 3 to 4 business days to reach you from a US facility. Most orders arrive in 5 to 9 business days. You get a tracking number by email as soon as the label is created.

Care

Machine wash cold, inside out, gentle cycle. Tumble dry low or hang dry. Do not iron the print.

The Natural colorway

Natural has small dark speckles through the fabric. That is the undyed cotton showing, and it is expected rather than a fault.
