Hello there,

I have yet another vintage tee question. This shirt looks entirely legitimate to me, comparing it to other similar shirts from this tour, but have yet to see a UK tour shirt like this. My main concern regarding it is the USA tag on it? I find it a little strange it would have a USA tag considering it being a UK tour shirt? Any of your inputs would be greatly aprleacited it once again! Thank you so much again, Defunkd peeps and collectors.

Hey J - I wouldn't worry about it. Who knows how tags end up where they do - it could have been a close-out sale a UK company purchased a massive quantity from a US supplier. It may not even be a product of the USA some foreign tags have US artwork. Perhaps the tours main merch company was situated in the US and printed the front only and/or provided the blanks.

It looks good!

Interesting. That never really crossed my mind. I just found it a little bizarre at first.Thanks again as always for the feedback, Jimmy! Always appreciated.

By the way, Jimmy. About how much would you place a value on a shirt like this? I've seen a few floating around, so I don't suppose it's extremely rare, correct?


Thanks again, man.
