Found this on my trip to New York:

A Catalina t-shirt with a similar design sold for $400+ a while back... http://www.defunkd.com/2009/10/05/vinta ... et-alaska/

wow, that's pretty cool!

Javi, I owe you lunch for tipping me off to the Primo Hawaiian Beer collector world- I flipped a shirt for 40x what I paid for it recently!

Nice....! Catalina stuff rules, "styled for the stars of Hollywood"...I think that's what the slogan was.

This one's a winner but I wonder what affect the condition will have on the final price. Rayon can be difficult.

What confuses me is why Jantzen stuff from the same era doesn't sell as well.
