A designer based in Selby, Yorkshire, has come under fire for selling Nazi products including Zyklon-B themed T-shirts and cups.
The sick products, themed after the gas which killed millions of Jews in the Holocaust, featured on the Internet site Redbubble, a global online marketplace for print-on-demand products, which has its headquarters in Melbourne and offices in Berlin and San Francisco.
Based on the logo for oral hygiene brand, Oral B, the products included T-shirts, cups, phone cases and rucksacks.
Design firm ImperivmCloth marketed the products with the caption: 'You too can look minty fresh with this beautiful Zyklon-B design'.
