This design came to us thanks, in the first instance, to an illustrated tribute rendered by our friend Maira Kalman in New York. Then, later in 2007, we stumbled across the design printed on tea towels, mugs and aprons in rural Victoria by Lark ... a business created by Allison Jones (CustOMER Since 1991).

We're also aware that a copy of the poster originally emerged at a place called Barter Books in Northumberland in the UK, and has been since cloned and reproduced by enterprising entrepreneurs from all corners of the world!

Here's the story of the design:

In 1939, on the eve of the declaration of war with Germany, the British Government's Ministry of Information commissioned a number of posters to be displayed throughout the country upon the outbreak of the inevitable war.

This poster, using the Crown of King George VI as the only graphic element, simply read "Keep Calm and Carry On."

The original designer's identity remains unknown. However, this faithful reproduction of the original poster is a tribute to the person who so cleverly captured the spirit of the moment.

So very British ... but universally re-assuring. Wear yours with a stiff upper lip!

P.S: Design Also Available HERE on: Tea Towel, Mug & Apron

A mantra for home, work or anywhere in between. I'd also like to see a companion t-shirt with the immortal words of Corporal Jones from Dad's Army "Don't panic Captain Mainwaring, don't panic."

Nathain Secker has given this product a 5 star rating | For any person who has children
For the days when the dishwasher floods the kitchen, students promise to send you assignments by the end of the week, your spouse gives you the car back with no petrol in it, or for that matter any day of the week if you are a parent, Keep Calm and Carry On. - On the other hand of course it could always be read as oxymoronic are we to Keep Calm or to Carry On, as in to carry on like a two-bob watch, like most of Remo deliciously ambiguous.

My Keep Calm and Carry On shirt arrived last week and I was THRILLED! It was my very first REMO shirt and I loved telling everyone the background story when I wore it the next day. Love it.

The design is helpful for stressful days! I have the t-shirt (always good), the tea towel (I like the fabric), and the mug (solidly layered on the mug). Love them all & I love the design.

The message is very calming. As you may be able to see in the picture attached, after having broken my foot and having to be in a cast and on crutches, the shirt was quite fitting for my current state.

carly has given this product a 4 star rating | so close...
I purchased this in my first REMO order (how exciting!). Love the t-shirt (fitted women's, lovely weight, perky sleeves), love the design (my entire family ought to be wearing this - really), but... the screenprint faded dramatically after the first wash - now more an old faded brick red than the original sharp scarlet. Still cool, but a bit sad after just one wash.

Jennifer has given this product a 3 star rating | White only?
Love this as a shirt design but it loses stars due to only being available on white. You might want to re-think the link to Mark Coop's site where many colours abound!

I echo Jennifer from Singapore, why only white? So many of your designs would look brilliant on other colours, very frustrating cos I just don't like white t-shirts other than very, very plain! TC.

Hi, of course I miss you! REMO was WAY ahead of its time. I still have your 1992 Gingerbread Man recipe and shopping list in my Filofax! I actually met one of my dear friends Ross, through your magic fortune telling fish! The fish was being discussed, REMO was mentioned, and with mutual recognition we discovered someone else who knew of the special something that is REMO. We found we had lots of other things in common too! Ross, if you're out there -- greetings! Thanks Anthony for letting me know about the new REMO! Cheers L
