I was encouraged by Tom from Arizona (TSS user Hot Karl) to write to Gorefest guitarist Frank Harthoorn and ask if he had any details about the shirt and he was cool enough to reply. This is what he had to say:
"No real story behind the shirt I'm afraid. It's indeed a misprint. They sometimes happen, and usually I kept them for my own collection. Some may have slipped through, though they were, as you say, isolated incidents. I don't think we sold more than 4 or 5 misprints of any design collectively over the years. I have that same reverse print on a hoodie, so there might be a couple more around somewhere. And say hi to Tom from me!
Anyway, hope this helps you in any way.
cheers,
Frank Harthoorn"
You're right, I definitely think it's a misprint. I'm guessing its an original Foundation 2000? Dunno any more details about it, you could ask Frank Harthoorn on Facebook. I'm almost positive he'd know the story behind it and how many were printed like that.

Great! Glad he was able to give you some info on it. I see you changed your mind about possibly trading it. Good decision :-)
Cheers!
