Finally, Hardy Har Hut Gets Some T-Shirts



We love the musical "Hairspray" around here, and I finally got around to putting together a Hardy Har Hut graphic for a CafePress t-shirt.

In Hairspray, the Hardy Har Hut is the joke shop operated by Tracy Turnblad's easy-going, somewhat goofy dad Wilbur. In the 2007 movie version the role is played by Christopher Walken. In the outtake above poor Wilbur is in the store and is at the mercy of beautiful Velma Von Tussle's plans for seduction. All helpless Wilbur can do to fend off the lovely Michelle Pfeiffer character's advances is toss Hardy Har Hut gag gifts at her.

For the shirt graphic we recreated some of the visual's of the 2007 movie, including the main Hardy Har Hut store sign and the happy faces graphics from the high front windows of the store. And down below is the "Fun, Jokes & Magic" sign from the lower window.
I hope fans of Hairspray and all you Beehive Harlots will enjoy the Hardy Har Hut t-shirt! You'll also find coffee cups and mouse pads and aprons and other CafePress stuff with the graphic.
