Re: Radiohead Pablo Honey 1993

I have an Anvil Made in USA tag from that era. Can't read the small print, but it looks legit to me. Lack of tour dates/cities and the purple color are it's main drawbacks. This is pre-W.A.S.T.E. Radiohead.

Re: New band tees

If you like the band, collect and wear them...time will tell how collectible they are. We're in an infernal hip hop age where there are few rock bands that command much interest beyond their regional area. I'd avoid the generic band tees and focus on those with specific tour date shows on the back o...

Re: Deadstock 80's Rip Curl

Dealers in sports & other memorabilia are sometimes put in the same quandry when they come across multiples of seemingly "rare" items. Experts in the field almost all say that the best practice is to space out the auctions/listings (in this case at LEAST a few months for identical desi...

Re: Russell Southern Company?

Russell used the Russell Southern name in advertising their jerseys at least up to 1968, and probably into the 70's. So the early '70's date is probably correct.

Re: Here's Whats New in California by Westwood tag

I still don't know much about this company. Though someone has an Etsy listing claiming a gaudy Hawaiian shirt with the HWNICBW tag is from the '60's.... https://www.vintagehanahawaiianshirts.com/listing/524199327/mens-vintage-60s-mod-tiki-bark-cloth https://c1.staticflickr.com/5/4565/37892262625_70...

Re: Robin Trower 1985 Beyond the Mist tour tee

Everything that Jimmy J said. Probably not a lot of Trower stuff online, so you can price it at higher end ($75-100) and wait. If no interest (on Ebay you can gauge interest by the number that have it on watchlist) lower it in $20 tiers. At least that's how I'd play it. Good luck.

Re: Led Zeppelin 1977 US Tour tee?

Without a tag, you have to look at the print. Does it look generic? American Eagle, Lucky Brand etc specialize in faux vintage tees i.e. Joe's Boxing Parlor or some such gimmick. True vintage are usually going to be more specific, to an actual place or event. Also look for small print and the genera...

Re: Led Zeppelin 1977 US Tour tee?

Possibly, though I've never run across any. Perhaps some true vintage bootleg items are floating around. Official merch, I'm not sure. The only ones I saw on Ebay were retro babydoll & women's styles from only the last 10 years (with a few unscrupulous sellers trying to pass them off as period v...
