CBC Mobile Unit

CBC Mobile UnitWe've partnered with the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (CBC) to create our own original series of CBC branded graphic tees. The CBC was the first nationally owned broadcasting company created to support and promote Canadian made media content to a diverse and ever changing nation, and this remains to be their mandate to the present day. All our CBC designs are inspired by vintage historical photographs of CBC crew and production tech taken

We've partnered with the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (CBC) to create our own original series of CBC branded graphic tees. The CBC was the first nationally-owned broadcasting company created to support and promote Canadian-made media content to a diverse and ever-changing nation, and this remains to be their mandate to the present day.  

All our CBC designs are inspired by vintage historical photographs of CBC crew and production tech taken throughout the country and shared by @archivesrc 

This tee shows a mobile reporting crew with their gear preparing for the official opening of the Saint Lawrence Seaway between Montréal and Lake Ontario in 1959. The Seaway was recognized as an incredible feat in engineering, allowing massive industrial cargo ships to traverse the waters for the first time. It was a huge public event, presided over by Queen Elizabeth II herself, as well as as the US President Dwight D. Eisenhower.

Special thanks to the @archivesrc Instagram account for making these pieces of history accessible to the public.
