Anthem Screen Printing was formed January of 2010 in San Francisco, CA by co-founders Dave Phillips and David Walker. Having met a few years earlier when they joined the same band, their interest in screen printing developed when they began printing their own shirts for shows. In July of 2009, Dave and David founded a small, garage-based screen printing company by the name of Screen Print Guy. Frustrated by the inconvenience of always having to order supplies from outside the Bay Area, the two came up with the idea of offering screen printing supplies at their own store. Six months after its inception, Screen Print Guy became Anthem Screen Printing, now the premiere source for t-shirt printing, screen printing supplies, equipment and inks in the San Francisco Bay Area.
