Great idea.   Most of my tournament shirts have mysteriously shrunk and do not fit anymore.

Cool idea!  I will look into this for this year's artwork for GS14.

Two words: Pellon prints.

They are low cost fabric sheets to perform screen registration and color saturation by the printers prior to inking shirts and make really good (IMO) framed poster art. They use the t-shirt screens so no different sizing, layout, substrates are needed.

With today’s technology, smaller photo-printer renderings May be a good alternative.

Yep! that's a good one, but can't add to it very easy as new events transpire. You can always buy another picture frame.

Imagine a piece that showed the evolution of logos for each event...like all of the Albion logos together. Or all of the Crabfest logos together. Or all of the Gimme Shelter logos/colors!
Great idea Pat! NCKA-meets-Warhol😝

Like many of you, I have over a decades worth of tournament shirts that sit in a drawer. Many of the shirts are faded from many years of use, and others, varied in quality of the material and sizing inconsistencies from one tournament to another, and some are still perfect. This is not meant as criticism, but just a realization that I have like 40+ tourney shirts in a drawer that I don't get to wear often enough. They are also a great reminder of an awesome time with a bunch of cool people! When I look back at all of the cool collaborations and creative artwork that we have seen over the years, it got me to thinking, how bad-ass would it be to have some of those same shirts framed as a print up on my wall that could be viewed daily!!
I have no idea if this is even feasible or would create too much work for tournament directors. I took an informal poll by asking many people at our events over the last summer what they thought, and all seemed to favor the idea.
Tournament directors: is this a possibility and cost effective for you to offer this opportunity for your event artwork to live on for a lifetime as a framed print?
Thank you for your consideration and feedback.

Do you have room on your walls for 40+ framed prints? My walls are already being covered with Amadeo framed prints.
  Not all of us are so fortunate to have that many but I am working on it! LOL ANd yes I would love to get prints and even auction of the original for funds!
