Nogginwear Rebrands Ipswich Clambake with Local Ipswich Clam Artist

A Clambake legacy continues with the throwback artwork of a local cartoonist.

Ipswich, MA, August 18, 2017 --(PR.com)-- Ipswich Clambake, Inc. announced the launch of a completely new branding of its restaurant under the direction of Nogginwear, LLC of Tilton, NH and George Karalias, native of Ipswich and creator of his Ipswich Clam cartoon art he started drawing while at Ipswich High School in the 70’s.

Keith “Woody” Woodman, owner of Ipswich Clambake says, “How could we pass up the opportunity to have George Karalias as our logo artist? He’s been drawing the Ipswich clam for more years than he cares to admit!”

If you don’t already know, Woody, as his friends and customers call him, is the great grandson of the man who invented the fried clam. On top of that, Ipswich is known around the world as the clam capital. Clamming in Ipswich started in colonial times and has become synonymous with its legacy.

The rebranding all came about when Woody’s associate, Scott Weldon of Nogginwear, LLC, suggested they offer the popular “Clambake” hat to restaurant customers. The art for the hat was created by George Karalias, who is part of the Nogginwear creative design team and is the resident "cartoon evangelist." Sales of the hat took off prompting a t-shirt design with the slogan “Fresh Ipswich Clams.” To see the design, go to the website: www.ipswichclambake.com. Now that the decision has been made to rebrand the entire business with the clam cartoon, Pepsi has jumped on board to add to the promotional efforts by offering exclusive marketing opportunities that did not exist before. “You’ll be seeing us everywhere,” says Scott Weldon, CEO of Nogginwear, LLC. “We’ll be at all the remaining summer events this year and we have lots planned for the fall and winter.”
