Behind the T-shirt: San Nicolas Island Sweatshirt
I found this 70's San Nicolas Island souvenir hoody sweatshirt recently, and never having heard of the place, did some googling.
Turns out it's one of the Channel Islands off the coast of central California, known for the story of Juana Maria, the Lone Woman of San Nicolas Island.
Basically in the 1830s, her island was invaded by Russian fur trappers, and then soon evacuated by missionaries from Santa Barbara, but she somehow missed the boat. She survived on San Nicolas Island alone for 20 years, in a hut made of whale bones, until she was found and brought over to Santa Barbara in 1853, where she smiled and and sang songs and was very happy, by all accounts.
Until she died 7 weeks later from dysentery.

Another weird clown and his toilet.
Rest your ash on the toilet that is Florida.
What is this conveying? Reluctance? Massage?

Last but not least, the lady loves horses.

Hey Wednesday! Hey WTF!
Hey Vodka Man with a cork for a head.
Hey girl holding teddy.
Hey ceramic book-shaped container onto which someone applied BOOKMARKS sticker letters.
How else can you be expected to keep track of them all?
It was hard to capture the full glory of this grabby iridescent blue crab.
So grabby.
Last but not least, a suckling pig. (Originally priced $5, a real steal for $2).
