Bad Brains tee

Post by vintag3 »

I couldn't find any similar tees online. Tee glows in the dark, is this legit?

It's definitely vintage - I don't have a radar on BB tees, but I don't think the fact that it might be a bootleg would hurt the value much - the biggest issue is the size of these old tees, quite small by today's standards.

That said, can you please take a photo of the glow effect? I haven't ever seen one - and typically bootlegs didn't use special inks.

I probably should've said glows under UV light not glow in the dark. I didn't know the difference. The images are from different proximity to the light.

Ahhh ok - yeah a lot of prints do, especially when they use those fluorescent-style inks, the white shirt helps too.
