Hey everyone,

Got a quick question for you.  As some of you know, I make tropical shirts and other clothing.  Does anyone know about getting a t.v. celeb to wear a shirt?  My idea is to make a shirt and send it to Boyd Coddington, the legendary hot rod builder in So. Cal.  I love his show American Hot Rod on the Discovery Cahnnel, and I notice that he is always wearring a tropical shirt.  Good idea, bad idea, too risky, or couldn`t hurt to try?

In your case it couldn`t hurt to send the shirt directly to Boyd - or find out who his manager is and send it their office.  You might also check out the show`s credits closely to determine if they have a wardrobe person on staff.

The other option is to find a professional who works in the field of product placement.

Here`s a couple interesting articles I had bookmarked on this topic:
