Nice find bodhi!

I never seen that Circle Jerks tee before.

Looks like the seller put reserves on everything though :cry:

Re: The Mysterious Occurrence Of The Sewn in Tag

Altered originals for whatever the reason is not something I would feel comfortable having in my collection or selling. Regardless of the dollar value involved, it suggests the seller is trying to pass the t-shirt off as something it's not. Levi denim collectors would laugh at someone who sewed a 50...

Sounds good Jimmy!

I wasn't entirely sure the guy was spamming so I opted to be polite in case it was an actual member who was unaware.

Re: Vintage HANES Woodstock shirt

Amazing you found this at a Goodwill store in 2012. I'd have to agree with Jimmy. The small Hanes tag is consistent with some of the older tees in my collection from the mid-70's. Hard to know for sure if it's actually from 1969. Might be worth taking some better photos and sending out an email to s...

Re: Levis Big E Resources

Hey Max - These are red tab, Big E, non-selvedge, 517-0217 boot cut. The 555 stamped on the back of the top button would indicate a later production run probably sometime in the 80's. A nice jean but not in high demand. What you want to look for are the vintage 501 Redlines. Here's an example of the...

The levisguide.com site is a bit rudimentary but the info is solid.
