Hello! My Aunt Valerie has been friends with the singer Bob Dylan since the 1980's. Dylan's assistant gave Aunt Val 15 concert tshirts that belonged to his children and I'm trying to sell them, but don't know what the best place and process is. I can provide authentication that they belonged to Dylan's family.
Is there a place that authenticates tshirts? What would be the best sales outlet to get the maximum price? Is eBay a good option? Thank you so much for your help and have a lovely day!
Oh! And I researched the one black tshirt with Dylan and a red background, but can't find when it was made and it doesn't have a date on the back. Any ideas?
I attached photos of the oldest tshirts. The site only allowed me to attach a few photos.

Very cool! The Dylan MOTHERLODE! Thanks for sharing. I'll shoot this around to a few groups I'm in. eBay is a good option but will take time, listing individually, you could do as a lot, but likely not get the most out of each one, but it's certainly way easier.
The one with Dylan and the red background is somewhere in the 1980s.
I've added more that you sent me via email, as I know there's a photo limit.

Re: 15 vintage Bob Dylan t-shirts from 1978-1990's
Thank you so much Jimmy J! I greatly appreciate you sharing your expertise and for shooting this around to a few groups that you are in. I have been selling things on eBay for years and so will probably go that route. I think that I'll end up selling them individually by auction, maybe 5 at a time. That would be 3 batches. Although, Heritage Auction house still has to get back to me about their interest in selling them. I'm just gathering information and brainstorming now, because this is an amazing collection and I want to do it justice. Any advice or suggestions from the group are greatly appreciated!

Re: 15 vintage Bob Dylan t-shirts from 1978-1990's
Hello Friends! I'm finally getting around to selling these tshirts. The history, or provenance, is so interesting that I'm wondering if I should go the extra step and get a notarized letter to offer for sale with each shirt. What are your thoughts?
