Do you know of a good chess bumper sticker, T-Shirt, or mug? Or do you have a good slogan for one?
My personal favorite bumper sticker was this one offered by the USCF back in the 1980's:

It's those little fists that I like. :-)
ChessUSA has three chess bumper stickers for sale, including the familiar "Chess Nut" one:
Cafe Press have a wide selection of chess-related T-shirts, mugs, and other things. A sample:
It's always better to sacrifice your opponent's men. - GrandMaster S. Tartakower
For even more visit there Chessopolis Shop.
Finally, there are many crude (and sometimes rude) attempts to use the word "mate" in a bumper sticker slogan, but here's one that is really rather nice:
Romance is like a game of chess: one false move and you're mated
Next Saturday we'll be back with another installment in the series Romp with Rook. Until then, have fun with chess!

These are good! I definitely remember the "Pawn Power" bumper sticker. In one of the books I have, there is featured an advertisement in a college newspaper that read something like this: "Chess club meeting this Wednesday. Come and learn the basic mating positions."

I had forgotten about that one - thanks for reminding me - very funny!
