Platinum Certification ID: DfnkdPC-004 Collapse All Summary This vintage T-shirt has undergone a meticulous review by an authenticator (James A.), who has concluded that it is an authentic, 1940s "11034-XG Silver Gray" Harley Davidson T-shirt in an M size.  In 2020, the Harley-Davidson Museum described this shirt as "Harley-Davidson's first t-shirt," first manufactured in 1947.
