Just before Christimas of 2004, Spacing launched our first batch of Toronto subway buttons<\/a><\/strong>. Five years later we’ve sold over 100,000 buttons that pay homage to the tile patterns and colour schemes of our subway platforms.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

To mark the occasion we’ve decided to release a special edition of our buttons, this time focused on the original colour schemes of Toronto’s first 12 subway stations opened in 1954 from Eglinton to Union underneath Yonge Street. (Many thanks to Jose Ongpin for the research work<\/a> previously done on the TTC subway)<\/em><\/p>\n

There is only one catch: for the time being you can only get them at our release party on Wednesday night. They’re for sale at $10 a pack. After our Wednesday party we’ll announce the retail locations the buttons will be sold at.<\/p>\n

If you wish to learn a little more about Toronto’s subway history check out this fine article on Transit Toronto<\/a>.<\/p>\n
