Hey all. I'm not a huge Nirvana fan, so never really pat attention to their vintage tees. I recently acquired a bleach tee on a real screen stars best blank.(made in usa). This shirt looks almost brand new(no dry rot), which is not "impossible", but unlikely. I'm thinking it's a bootleg new print on a real vintage blank, but let me know what you guys think. Most I've seen on ebay have the "crack smokin" back hit

It looks like this is a new print from a vintage shirt, it's obvious because the material is 50/50, so if it's screen printed the white will definitely fade. If it's an old print, usually the pure white color won't fade.

Pure white on the screen ink? It's hard to tell from my photos, but it's silver ink, if that matters. Im sure you are right , though, as the chances of acquiring a deadstock Nirvana tee was Uber slim. Oh well,maybe someone will want to buy it, as long as I post it as a reprint/boot
