Destruction Tee (Supreme exclusive)
About the original
The Supreme/Frank Frazetta Destruction Tee is an all-cotton short-sleeve t-shirt printed with Frank Frazetta's 1970s fantasy painting of an armored executioner and a slumped figure. Frazetta (1928-2010) was the American illustrator whose oil paintings defined heroic-fantasy book-cover art from the 1960s on, setting the visual language for Conan the Barbarian, Death Dealer, and most Molly Hatchet album sleeves. The tee is a Supreme-exclusive graphic release from FW24 produced with the Frank Frazetta Estate, offered in black, white, cardinal, and moss. There is no non-Supreme retail version; the artwork itself is licensed from the estate and exists in dozens of print, poster, and trade-paperback reproductions at standard illustration-art prices.
About Frank Frazetta
Frank Frazetta was an American fantasy and science-fiction illustrator born in Brooklyn, New York in 1928. After early work on comics and men's magazines, he painted covers for reprints of Edgar Rice Burroughs's novels starting in 1962 and went on to define the visual language of Conan the Barbarian and sword-and-sorcery paperbacks. His 1973 oil painting Death Dealer became one of the most recognized fantasy images of the twentieth century. Frazetta died in 2010, and his daughter Holly and granddaughter Sara now manage licensing through Frazetta Girls and Frazetta Properties. Supreme has collaborated with the Frazetta estate on graphic apparel, including pieces featuring Death Dealer.
