Hey everyone!

Looking for more info and/or a valuation on this 1987 U2 Joshua Tree band tee. As you can see, it's on an Acme tag and made in AUS.

I have been looking everywhere for more info on this tee, comps etc. but it seems to be a bit of a ghost. Genuinely haven't found a single other photo of it on the internet.

Size is large, measurements are 57.5cm P2P and 70cm T2B. Condition is excellent.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Cheers :)

Ha great one, I don't remember seeing it before, butttt I've seen too many tees over the years. I managed to find one that was listed on Grailed.

Typically an 80s L would be small but appears as though yours is a decent size at 22.5 inches p2p.

I have been noticing recently after getting some deadstock tees in from Australia - that their 80s sizing tends to run a little larger, which is def. in your favor value wise.

But U2 tees in generally tend to max out at $200...so prob expect in that area.

Cheers Jimmy! I had assumed that it would be somewhere in that ballpark, but figured it was worth double checking.
