Is this fake?_1995 Led Zeppelin vintage shirt

Post by ysmyum »

A few days ago, I purchased a Red Zeppelin shirt from eBay for international shipping. The printed year on the shirt is 1995, but the tag used is from 1997 onwards. I'm curious to know if this is a case of a reissued shirt after '95 or if it's simply a counterfeit shirt.
I am seriously considering whether to return it or not. :cry:

Remember, copyrights are not necessarily when a shirt is printed, they are the date the artwork was copywritten.

Doesn't this product look like a fake(specifically about the tag)?

The shirts looks good, tag is a bit weird: some letters crooked and tilted, especially "I", and "G" but that maybe consequences of tag production (worn machine, etc)
At the pic your tag at the top

Compare vs tags you find in here - all of these have been here for at least 10 years:

before fake tags exisited. Compare it to other Ls.
