I don't know when I first saw it, but I know variations of the Helvetica shirt were first:

ps.  being a font snob ... the Cafe Press shirt just has horrible kerning
     between the 'T' and 'A.  The Code4Lib one is better, but misses the
     little bevel on the 'T' to have it made up tight to the 'A', and the
     kerning between 'A' and 'D' could be a bit tighter.  The helvetica
     shirt I linked to clearly slid the letters around (as the  'T' has
     the beveled edge to mate up to the now-missing 'A'.)
