About the product
A perfectly reasonable municipal notice, protecting the one house it cannot protect. Front: the vintage "Hansel u. Gretel — est. 1812" storefront crest. Back: the official placard — PLEASE DO NOT EAT THE HOUSE — posted above the full gingerbread cottage from the original engraving, children already mid-snack at the fence. The artwork is genuinely antique: Ludwig Richter's classic Hansel and Gretel wood engraving (the witch at her gingerbread door, the children at the fence) and Hermann Vogel's hand-drawn story-title lettering, both from 19th-century German editions of the Brothers Grimm and both long in the public domain. We restore the scans, cut the compositions, and set the type in-house — every design in this shop is our own original composition built from authentic vintage artwork. • FRONT: the "Hansel u. Gretel — est. 1812" storefront crest in vintage gingerbread lettering, with the 1812 cut from the original engraving • BACK: the PLEASE DO NOT EAT THE HOUSE placard over the full cottage scene • Printed BOTH sides — chalk-cream ink on the Comfort Colors 1717, a heavyweight garment-dyed 100% ring-spun cotton tee • Colors: Black, Pepper, Graphite, Navy, Sapphire, Blue Jean, Blue Spruce, Moss, Espresso, Chili, Crimson, Berry, Violet, or Red (100% ring-spun cotton, garment-dyed; no heathers) • Unisex sizes S–2XL — true to size; see the size chart in the photos
