Old News is an original print Roberta Oaks shirt featuring a collage of select excerpts from thirteen island newspapers dated 1840 to 1912, offering a snapshot of the bustling port of Honolulu at Aloha Tower and the vibrant streets of Chinatown. From ship manifests listing arriving passengers to classified ads for lost pets and available homes, the print captures the lively commerce, community, and character of a historic era. As a retail store owner in Chinatown, this design holds personal meaning—evoking a time when horse-drawn carriages lined the streets, saloons buzzed with life, and every detail was crafted with care. Printed with the skill and craftsmanship of a bygone age, Old News invites you to wear a piece of Honolulu's rich heritage.
Available in black with a crisp off-white print, offering a bold reversal of the classic newspaper look.
