Weird Fish have honoured late
music legend Prince with a new
limited edition t-shirt called
'Purple Crane' to mark the one-
year anniversary of his death.
Weird Fish have paid homage to Prince as the
anniversary of the iconic singer's death
approaches.
The 'Purple Rain' hitmaker tragically passed
away on April 21, 2016, and in honour of the
late music legend - who died from an
overdose at the age of 57 - the British
lifestyle clothing brand has announced the
new limited edition 'Purple Crane' top, which
has been designed by artist Steve Bright.
It is the sixth in a series of shirts, which have
been sold to raise support of the Royal
Society for the Protection of Birds (RSPB), an
initiative which has raised more than £40,000
for the charity since January 2015.
Previous designs included the 'Lord of the
Wings,' 'Darth Wader,' 'Harrier Potter and the
Deathly Sparrows,' 'Raiders of the Lost Lark'
and 'Cranespotting.'
'Purple Crane' is on sale now for £20, with £5
from each sale being donated to the RSPB.
The T-shirt is available in Barbary Red, Snow
White and Washed Blue.
John Stockton, managing director at Weird
Fish, said: ''The success of our limited edition
charity t-shirts relies on excellent design,
great quality and of course a good pun. When
we launched a competition last year to find
the next artist to join our design team and
come up with the next charity T-Shirt, we
were so impressed with the three final
designs that we ended up inviting all three
artists to work with us.
''Purple Crane was one of these designs - with
the anniversary of Prince's death coming up,
we think it is one his fans will really
appreciate.
