magic island shirts old advertisements

The following images are the original advertisements that Magic Island T-shirts ran in Surfer Magazine during the 1970's. We think the ads are a great snapshot of the original surf t-shirt company. Be sure to read the fine print on the ads where you can see the original price of a t-shirt at $5.50 per shirt. Amazing!!!



A big thanks goes out to Jye Townsend and the crew at Surfer Magazine for their role in helping us uncover some of these old advertisements from our original incarnation in the 1970's.
