Hello. Has anybody seen a sewn-in GEM tag like this one? Is this safe? it's on a Cranberries shirt under licensed to PolyGram.

kyubi18

it has this vertical cracking on the print

kyubi18

red flags i have noticed:
1. vertical cracks
2. single-stitched top to bottom
3. On a US variant brockum tag but it's a european tour
4. Large on tag and seller said dimes are 25x30

any thoughts will be much appreciated

Thank you Jimm! rock on!

most of what i found was the black variant but it's on a giant by anvil tag and does have a copyright. (see the attached photo)

I found one tho in your database. but this one is on a screen stars tag
