Check out this iconic men's Vintage 'LUNCH ATOP a SKYSCRAPER' All Over Print T-shirt.

Recognisable almost everywhere, the original photo was taken on September 20, 1932, of eleven ironworkers sitting on a steel beam 850 feet (260 meters) above the ground on the sixty-ninth floor of the RCA Building in Manhattan, New York City.

The photograph was arranged as a publicity stunt, part of a campaign of many photos promoting the skyscraper. The photograph was first published in October 1932 during the construction of the Rockefeller Center. The photographer was thought to be either Charles Clyde Ebbets, Tom Kelley, or William Leftwich, but this cannot be confirmed.

Made individually when an order is placed, the vintage design is printed directly on to the fabric and then the shirt is carefully sewn together by hand.

This T-shirt is made from a lightweight cotton touch polyester jersey that won't fade after washing.
