Last 2 ‘Classic’ OB Rag T-Shirts Up for Auction

UPDATE: We have 2 winning bids – the auction is over.

It’s true! The very last two Classic OB Rag T’s are up for auction.

For years, we offered OB Rag T-shirts as part of our fund-raising efforts – all printed at James Gang in OB, all 100% cotton and all with our logos. But over time, the swag gig was time-consuming and didn’t generate all that much at any one time. We did sell dozens and dozens of our shirts, including various styles and logos.

Now here we are today. We have the very last two OB Rag T’s in the classic variety. And they are up for auction.

They are both:

White
Medium size
All cotton
Classic – with the “Green OB” on the back.

How to Participate in the OB Rag T-Shirt Auction:

First, make a written offer only in the comment section of this post and leave only your name. Do not send us anything yet.

The auction will last from today, Thursday, Oct. 10, through the weekend until midnight Tuesday, Oct. 15. At that time, the two highest bids will be awarded the shirts. And once we notify the winning bidders via email and they deposit their bids at our PayPal account (button at top of banner) and they are verified, we’ll make the announcement and mail out the shirts. Minimum bid is $5.00.

I’ll go $25. It’s the least I can do. Just think, I will have the only OBRag t-shirt in Shasta County if I get it . . .

I wish I would have noticed you had more of them. That said, it’s a good cause! I’ll go $50.

      If the shirt would have been a large I would have bid against you, retired botanist. But I, too, just don’t have the big bucks for a t-shirt regardless of how cool I think it is. And like Dickie, nobody would have a clue up here by the Canadian Border!
