Ani Khachoian, C3′s EVP of Licensing & Consumer Products said ‘While the Arrow titles, including the Linda Lovelace® and Deep Throat® brands, are mature adult fare, they represent mainstream adult pop culture. The classic vintage images from these great adult cinema features are more popular today than ever before; especially since this is the 40th year anniversary of the release of the original Deep Throat movie.’

Continuing, she said ‘Killer Tees is a great licensee to have for this genre because of the quality products they produce, in this case tee shirts made from ringspun cotton producing a softer and more durable shirt. Their ability to distribute to the domestic specialty retail market, as the placement with the Hustler Stores shows, is a plus. We expect, given the iconic value of the titles, the product will do well at the Hustler Stores and in main stream stores as well.’

Rachel Pinker, owner and operator of Killer Tees, said ‘Our licensing agreement with C3 Entertainment for the Arrow Classics graphics is a natural fit to our existing products and presents a special opportunity to expand our edgy novelty Tee product line with future best-sellers. I’m really excited about the vintage adult cinema graphics that we will be offering and we are pleased with the placement at the Hustler Stores.’
