Out of Space and Time T-shirt
Out of Space and Time T-shirt painted by Bob for the cover of Clark Ashton Smith book
Out of Space and Time is a collection of Clark Ashton Smith’s most celebrated fantasy, horror, and science-fiction stories. Drawing from his major story-cycles—such as Hyperborea, Zothique, Averoigne, and Poseidonis—the book showcases Smith’s lush, poetic prose and his fascination with decadence, cosmic mystery, and the supernatural.
Across the collection, Smith transports readers to realms far removed from ordinary reality:
-
Ancient, dying worlds filled with sorcery, forgotten gods, and crumbling civilizations.
-
Mythic continents plagued by necromancers, monstrous beings, and eerie enchantments.
-
Timeless cosmic vistas where humanity confronts forces beyond comprehension.
Typical themes include the fragility of human ambition, the inevitability of decay, and the overwhelming scale of cosmic indifference. Rather than relying on fast-paced plots, the stories emphasize atmosphere, ornate language, and the strange beauty of the macabre.
Overall, Out of Space and Time serves as an essential showcase of Smith’s unique imaginative style—darkly lyrical, otherworldly, and rich with fantastical invention.

If you’re a fan of science fiction and fantasy art from the 60s, 70s and 80s, then Bob Haberfield’s retro art T‑shirt collection is a real treat. Now available at his website art shop, these designs are not just items of clothing, they showcase some of the most creative and provocative artwork from the 1960s through to the 1980s, a golden era of book cover art. Gods and demons, swords and sorcery, images from the iconic tales of Michael Moorcock and others, draw you into a universe of colour, rich symbolism and cosmic mythology.
The T-shirts: Iconic Cover Art Reimagined
The new range of T-shirts have been designed and reworked from the original paintings to integrate the imagery into the style and colour of the garment. In the case of images with a strong central figure the backgrounds have been removed so that the protagonist jumps out. Doing so involved Ben tracing the very lines his father drew 50 years earlier.
Quality and Sustainability
Out of Space and Time T-shirtt is made on demand, which cuts down on over‑production. Unless specifically stated, the material is 100% cotton to give comfort and durability (the Ash Grey option is 99% cotton and 1% polyester). The printing technique is direct to garment printing so it has a natural feel, rather than a print onto a transfer which tends to have a plastic feel to it and be less durable. The T-shirts are created to the highest quality in order to preserve the artist’s legacy.
Because they are made specifically for each order, there is a slightly longer delivery time.
Care for Out of Space and Time T-shirt
- Wash inside‑out and preferably in cold water to protect the print.
- Avoid harsh detergents or bleach.
••Unless otherwise specified, hang dry or tumble low heat. High heat degrades print and can cause cotton to shrink.
