Yup agree, now that I can see the DS neckline - what's interesting, though, is that all the modern repros I found don't have the Nice Man logo/subscript. And that portion matches well when I compared it to what appear to be known originals, which can sometimes through counterfeiters for a loop with choosing the correct font, spacing etc.

I also found this print on another tag, not only Nice Man - Jerzees. But NM could have just been using Jerzees blanks

DS collars, exactly when it started, is something we're investigating now, because I don't like making blanket statements about stitching. But based on a quick scan of black Nice Man tagged tees - I couldn't find one with DS, and there is no evidence of it on Jerzees from that era either.

If I were you I would try to hunt down other fakes with that NM copyright/DS collar.

Where did your friend get it?
