Wonky Bike Week listings

Post by RyanB » Sun Sep 30, 2012 7:56 am

The first one states "VINTAGE 80'S DAYTONA BEACH 50TH BIKE WEEK" but the 50th anniversary Bike Week was in 1991. The copyright date is 1989 and the design was reused apparently.

This next one says that it's vintage 70's when it clearly shows '85 all over the shirt in the pictures... This looks to be a big seller. Dunno how they missed that.

The first one is a buddy of mine - great guy. He doesn't try to mislead - just didn't do the research on the 50th.

The second - Skinners brand is pure 80s I believe.

I think the 2nd one may just be a typo. I'm thinking the seller probably typed it wrong and then just cut & pasted the title again.

Sadly, I have done this before :roll:

Yeah I figured one of them might have some ties on here. I sent him a message about it. Hopefully I don't come across as a know-it-all jerk. lol
