This time a piece from my collection, a Metallica European Tour 1993 parking lot bootleg. Except for a few more music tour shirts also dated 1993 I can‘t find anything about that tag/brand. It‘s also double stitched. Anyone familiar with them?

We've got a handful indexed here - appears to have originated in the late 80s but more common in the 90s

Double stitchingb was more common earlier in other countries than it was in the USA.

I would also guess neither print or tag have known fakes?

The only thing that throws me a lil bit off is indeed the double stiching, I know it was already common in early 90s europe but to my knowledge it was really rare on american blanks and the tag says printed in usa/made in venezuela
