Hey Jimmy, Long time no see, hope all is well! I came across this Liquid Blue tag on a Grateful Dead shirt with a 93 copyright on the image. It looks off to me for a couple of reasons, but curious to hear what you think. Here's my list of concerns: 1. the colors of the swirls look off, too bright ...

Nice. Cool that your dad was involved in the '72 olympic trials and got one of those.

Glad I was able to help out! It's a cool shirt.

I want to hear Happy Song for Mark, that's right up my alley.

Best,
Mark

hahaha! that made me laugh!

I'm the son of two librarians, so it's in the genes. Gotta get into the quoted searches. Drop "da da id" into Google, and it's the first thing that pops up.

I love that shirt, definitely a keeper.

I think I found the band for you, check this out.
Here's a discogs link to their 1991 cassette (!) ep Hatin' Life

check this out, I think it's your tag on a Primus shirt

Hey man, I just checked out your website. Looking good! Two pieces of feedback, since you're asking. One is that it pegged me as coming from the Philippines and priced it accordingly. I'm in the US, so you might want to check the code on whatever is doing that filtering. The other thing is that if a ...

I think that's legit. It'll be interesting to see if the pit to pit is off. It's hard to imagine anyone going to the length of faking a single/double (that's my term for single stitch sleeves/double stitch hems, which as you point out is typical on Jerzees from that era), since that's not a common ...

that's amazing, it was such a quick response. I love how in the video there's no piping, but there's plenty of trash around...I guess that's part of his shtick.

Love it! It's really odd. I hope one of your IG contacts knows what it is, Jimmy.

I had never heard of a serger before I read your post. Interesting stuff.

I found an organization online that might be able to help you locate a good tailor/seamstress who does serger work in your area. The Indianapolis chapter of the American Sewing Guild: https://indyasg.org/classes/

that is a weird one. What is that, a trash bag in the corner?

Hey Jimmy,
Not sure why that post ended up with three images of the tag. I only placed it inline once. Just thought I'd let you know in case there's a bug.

Screenshot 2023-09-25 at 9.54.47 PM.png Wonder if it has anything to do with this clothing company, El Charro. Their logo at some point was El Charro The Rose World. They've been around since 1974, apparently, and are still kicking. You should send them a pic of your shirt and ask them if it's one ...

Cool, good eye

Cool shirt. This is a very old thread, but just to add a little to it... Duane already had the nickname SkyDog before the band came together, when he was a session guitarist at Muscle Shoals. The story goes that Rick Hall, the founder of FAME studios, called Duane "Dog" and Wilson Pickett called ...

Is it single stitch sleeves with double stitch bottom hem? Likely legit if that's the case

For what it's worth, I date that Gildan double tag starting in about '98 and then going into the 00s. Not sure about that particular shirt, though.

I think you're safe on the adult / no-adult issue. There were multiple variations of those tags in any given year and some had Adult and some didn't...who knows why. The only thing that looked funky to me about the tag on the embroidered shirt was that there was so much blank white space on the left ...

Thanks, man. that's interesting. Maybe my boy was remembering the shirt wrong. He's trying to find me an old pic of him wearing it, but he hasn't turned one up yet. There are two charvel shirts up on etsy, one with a Signal tag (the Wyco muscle shirt) and one with a Screen Stars. The worthpoint one ...

thanks, J

Anybody have a tee with this logo on the front? Would be from the 80s or possibly early 90s. They shipped as lagniappe with the purchase of a Jackson. A friend who owned a Jackson is looking for one, preferably in a (vintage) medium. Wyco has one, but it's a muscle shirt with Charvel on the front ...

1% of mystery fabric - Ployester

Did you try contacting the restaurant? It's still kicking and has been there since 1935, apparently. Maybe they've got some old stock hanging around downstairs...
