Item: vintage 1986 QUEEN The Magic Tour t-shirt

Brand: No Tag

Sold By: VintagePimps

What the Seller Says: This auction is for a rare 1986 Queen A Kind of Magic Tour t-shirt. This was the last show that Freddie Mercury played with Queen. Look at the date on the back. This shirt is listed with vintage collectors as the rarest Queen shirt out there!

What we Say: According to a book we reviewedVintage T-Shirts, “This shirt is much sought-after by collectors. The chances of finding one are negligible.” We don’t agree with this statement given there are much older and far more rare queen tees than this one, but a cool tee nonetheless.

    Does anyone know how many of these tees were made? And better yet, how many still exist?

    we have a the bizz london shirt, button up front, yellow with queen characters all over it, bought at knebworth 9 th august 1986, from research we have found that it was only worn by the crew and not commercially available however, my dad managed to buy one, at the concert, it is most probably extremely rare and i am wondering if anyone has any idea of how many were made ?
