I had never heard of a serger before I read your post. Interesting stuff.

I found an organization online that might be able to help you locate a good tailor/seamstress who does serger work in your area. The Indianapolis chapter of the American Sewing Guild: https://indyasg.org/classes/

that is a weird one. What is that, a trash bag in the corner?

Hey Jimmy,
Not sure why that post ended up with three images of the tag. I only placed it inline once. Just thought I'd let you know in case there's a bug.

Screenshot 2023-09-25 at 9.54.47 PM.png Wonder if it has anything to do with this clothing company, El Charro. Their logo at some point was El Charro The Rose World. They've been around since 1974, apparently, and are still kicking. You should send them a pic of your shirt and ask them if it's one ...

Cool, good eye

Cool shirt. This is a very old thread, but just to add a little to it... Duane already had the nickname SkyDog before the band came together, when he was a session guitarist at Muscle Shoals. The story goes that Rick Hall, the founder of FAME studios, called Duane "Dog" and Wilson Pickett called ...

Is it single stitch sleeves with double stitch bottom hem? Likely legit if that's the case

For what it's worth, I date that Gildan double tag starting in about '98 and then going into the 00s. Not sure about that particular shirt, though.

I think you're safe on the adult / no-adult issue. There were multiple variations of those tags in any given year and some had Adult and some didn't...who knows why. The only thing that looked funky to me about the tag on the embroidered shirt was that there was so much blank white space on the left ...

Thanks, man. that's interesting. Maybe my boy was remembering the shirt wrong. He's trying to find me an old pic of him wearing it, but he hasn't turned one up yet. There are two charvel shirts up on etsy, one with a Signal tag (the Wyco muscle shirt) and one with a Screen Stars. The worthpoint one ...

thanks, J

Anybody have a tee with this logo on the front? Would be from the 80s or possibly early 90s. They shipped as lagniappe with the purchase of a Jackson. A friend who owned a Jackson is looking for one, preferably in a (vintage) medium. Wyco has one, but it's a muscle shirt with Charvel on the front ...

1% of mystery fabric - Ployester

Did you try contacting the restaurant? It's still kicking and has been there since 1935, apparently. Maybe they've got some old stock hanging around downstairs...

very cool, man. I always thought of the "standard" early 90s embroidered type as the oldest tag, go figure.

What do you think? Just saw this on ebay. I've never seen a non-embroidered version of this design, but I definitely haven't seen everything out there.

Nice. You should definitely be proud, man, it's very cool. It'd be interesting to do a deep dive into some of the ones that were judged wrong (either pass or fail) and see where the community knowledge is sort of off base. Not sure how that would happen, but it's the kind of thing I'd be into.

Hey Jimmy, Hope all is good. I was wondering if you're tracking the community sourced pass/fails on the app? Are they accurate? I know there's a bit of a conflict since you're offering paid authentications as part of the app, but just curious what you're seeing and whether you've had to resist the ...

That's a weird one, J. It definitely seems like a lot of trouble to triple tag it if it was fake...unless that little size tag and the content tag are the original and someone wanted just to slide a Brockum under that size tag. The only thing that gives me pause is that it doesn't have the usual ...

The original is supposed to be from 1990, right? That double tag Oneita is much later than 1990, sorry. I see it's up on Grailed for $1800...
