Re: "Crazy Shirts" San Francisco T-Shirt - Era?

Agreed Jimmy. Mid to late 90's. I was never a fan of the big overall graphics but they sure were popular there for a while. 8-)

Re: Jerzees Grid Tag

I'd say someone has boxes of deadstock blanks laying around. That Jerzzes tag isn't that old.

Re: First Band You Ever Went And Seen????

One of the very first bands I ever saw play live believe it or not was Black Flag on Aug.21 1981 at the long closed but infamous California punk club "The Cuckoos Nest". http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cuckoo's_Nest_(nightclub) Original flyer for the show http://img94.imageshack.us/img94/6485 ...

Re: Bleach safely?

@tupper I've found that soaking vintage white tees with Oxy Clean in hot water works really well at getting the white to come back to life. Just make sure the Oxy powder is completely dissolved in the water and don't soak for too long. Maybe 15 minutes or so should do the trick. http://img201 ...

Re: Charles Mason Charlie Don't Surf Tee

Hard to say for sure.

Could be 90's but more like 2000's.

Re: VINTAGE 1977 ED DONAHUE GRATEFUL DEAD

The folks at The Golden Frog have some amazingly rare pieces.

Seems the value is set very high as most collectors have a tendency to do.

Basically it just means we don't really want to sell but if you'll give us $750 we might part with it. :roll:

Re: New autographs on vintage tees?

I'd say "No" to the autograph idea personally. Jimmy and Stormcrow already supported this based on their own personal selling experiences. Unlike many other collectibles where an authentic signature increases value, I'd say 90% of what we see as buyers/sellers and collectors of vintage t-shirts ...

Re: Retro Nike tshirts

Without seeing clearer and in focus photos I'm afraid we can't provide much help. Keep in mind Nike did a whole line of reproductions in recent years of their own 70's and 80's collectibles. Post some photos of the entire t-shirt and separate photos of the tags so we can give you an idea of their ...

Re: super t-shirt tag label (which era?)

I've never seen that tag before.

A generic 90's blank used when printing probably because it was cost effective.

Hope that helps.

Where are all these?

These are all so rare I don't think I've ever seen any of them. Where are they? This is an ad from the June 1977 issue of Skateboarder Magazine *(notice how popular the back print was in '77)

Re: Punk Tees

The GBH and Cramps tees are cool and look legit but way too small.

Good for the girls or for show.

I don't know any guys that can wear 16.5" x 24" :cry:
