The Yorkshire Terrier story
YORKSHIRE
Drawn as an original engraving in its own landscape and printed as a full archive plate. Comes as a tee, a sweatshirt, a hoodie, a print and a pack of cards, from £30.00.
Scottish weavers moving south to the mills of Yorkshire and Lancashire in the mid-nineteenth century brought small terriers with them, and the dogs earned their keep killing rats in the mills and the pits. Huddersfield Ben, whelped in 1865, is the dog most of the breed traces back to. The coat, long and fine and parted down the spine, arrived later with the show bench, but the terrier underneath was never diluted. Owners know that nobody has yet informed a Yorkshire Terrier of its size: the announcement of every delivery driver, the willingness to challenge a retriever, the insistence on inspecting an entire house before settling. In the archive image the artist drew the coat in long unbroken strokes and left the face uncluttered, so the terrier expression is not lost inside it.

The Yorkshire Terrier plate
Every plate in the archive is drawn from scratch as a natural-history engraving, the breed set in the country it was made for rather than floated on a white background. The Yorkshire Terrier is Archive No. 024. The drawing is printed as a full plate across the back of the garment, nothing on the front, and the same plate is used for the print and the cards.
Garments are made when they are ordered, so nothing is printed until it is wanted and nothing is held in a warehouse. UK orders are printed in the UK and North American orders in the USA, which keeps the parcel on the same side of the ocean as the person waiting for it. If it is not right when it arrives, it can go back within 30 days.
