In the mid-'70's I worked at Turin Bicycle Co-op in Chicago. We had shirts with the shop logo on the back, something like this

On the front was an underground comix style picture of some anthropomorphic vegetables with the legend "Vegetables for World Harmony - Virility - Stamina - Endurance"
The shirts were made by some people who lived in a commune in Wisconsin. I remember calling to order new ones for the shop, and having to leave a message because the woman who did the silk-screening was out milking the cows.
I wore mine until it was as thin as cheesecloth. I would love to find that graphic again
