Led Zeppelin United States Tour '77 Shirt Appraisal

Post by rockit2themoon »

Hi! I found this site while trying to find out more information about this shirt. My dad bought it when he saw LZ at Madison Square Garden in 1977. I don't think my dad wore it before he gave it to me when I was in high school, I wore it a few times and then it's spent most of the past eighteen years in my closet. The tag says it's a size M, but it fits me pretty well and I'm usually a women's size M/men's size S. The material is pretty thin but I don't see any holes. It's about 16 inches pit to pit and 25 inches from top to bottom. A lot of the yellow on the design is kind of shiny and very slightly raised?

Any idea what it's worth? Most of the shirts from this tour I saw being sold on eBay were either modern reproductions and/or had a different design. (I'm not interested in selling, this is more for my own curiosity.)

The Pakistan-based tag usually indicates a bootleg, so he likely bought it outside the venue. Those tees were not the best quality, some of them quite thin.

The size, well, they Ms from the 70s mostly don't even qualify as an S in the modern era.

But still a great piece to a LZ/70s rock collector.

This design has been reprinted quite a bit if you use Google lens you'll see how many other ones come up.

It's probably a $100-200 piece, but I'll reach out to my pal Max to see what he thinks

Thank you very much! It being a bootleg isn't terrible news to hear - I was considering wearing it out to a concert soon and was worried I might be putting a priceless piece of rock memorabilia at risk. $100-$200 is nothing to sneeze at, but now that that's less of an issue I'll definitely wear it. :)
