Re: 1996/97 Sting "Mercury Falling" Album Tour

Yeah, no problems here! Sting tees generally perform pretty poorly, price wise, so he's not something counterfeitters would go after.

Re: 1991 Gloria Estefan "Into the Light" Tour Shirt

Totally legit. Tag is right I found another version of this on the same tag - measurements check out for size. (it sold for $75 a few years ago.) I think it's just a bit of loose thread, which happens.

Print a-ok!

Re: 1998 Helloween Tour Shirt RedWood Tag

Looks a-ok to me. Redwood is one of those oddball tags that kinda looks out of place, but it's found on a spattering of different band tees:

Seems to be mid to late 90s, perhaps into the 00s. Does it have an RN number on the back?

Re: Vintage flannel shirt

The RN indicates it was created at earliest, circa 1968.

It looks like something out of the 90s - but also could be modern.

Not much value here I don't think.

Re: Anyone know the original reference of this tshirt?

Yes, Nirvana - I think this is a Saint Michael shirt, where they make new shirts that are inspired by old prints.

They also have tags that are the same type of thing.

Re: Prince - Jam of The Year World Tour t-shirt value

Cool one! Chances are it's a vintage bootleg, which would explain why they seem a little more scarce, and why the tag is ripped. https://www.defunkd.com/cut-tags/ I don't think it hurts the value, might even increase it a touch. But after pulling legit versions - past sales - it looks like they go ...

Re: 1982 Atari Pac-Man

I have seen the occasional tag size anomaly, it could have been mis-tagged I guess. I can't find anything wrong with the print - at first it seemed like the colors were off but I was able to find a few others that are in line with yours. Plus, that tag is synonymous with this print. Is that a good ...

Re: Is this Bob Dylan 1978 tour Authentic?

These were printed on various tags. And yes, they have been faked, and most recently reproduced for $19.99. At first glance, that tag, and the measurements, I don't think you have anything to worry about here. I've checked on this print before - and if memory serves, there can be subtle differences ...

Re: Eminem "The Marshall Mathers LP" Hoodie

Interesting - perhaps that "All Sport" tag was specific to Hoodies. I found the same print on t-shirts with an All Sport tag. Yours says All Sports, and it's generally the same font.

Can you ask the seller to show a pic of the rear of the tag? Maybe there's an RN number.

Here's another one that was just found in the wild, reported to us by JapanGrade on Instagram.

Re: Legit Check for Megadeth Countdown to Extinction all over print Tee

I haven't seen a fake version of that Wild Oats tag.

And the shirt I posted above - is the same tag.

I would just make sure there's been no tampering with the tag and then make sure the measurements match other Wild Oats tagged t-shirts in that size.

If it were me, I'd pass and hold off for one that's vibrant like this one, which is also a Wild Oats-tagged one. Look at the difference between the two. The one below looks way more photo-realistic. Look at the man. And then look at the evolutionary monkeys, and how much more detailed they are. I ...
