Re: mystery PAVEMENT 90's tee - English label

Never heard of Rio, but it's a dot-matrix tag, which is consistent with some tags of the period- though more for sizing/sourcing/washing info (depending on the circumstance) than branding. Unless my eyes deceive me, there looks to be the frayed remnants of a another tag above that one that was ...

Hare Jordan, distressed

Saw the huge bucks Wyco was asking for their Hare Jordan, and remembered I had one stashed away in my stockpile. Unfortunately, the image is kind of crumbly: the white on Jordan's shirt and on Bugs has seriously deteriorated (the back is cracked but intact. Embroidered gray tag, size L, 24x24. Worth ...

Re: Hudson Hawk

Hmm- I don't think it's THAT bad. The movie does have a cult following (and the writer and director of Heathers), so it's not like other Bruce Willis-collects-a-paycheck jobs. Have you ever seen it for sale?

American Flagg, Starstruck, Black Kiss, Heavy Metal

Have gotten deep into alterna-comix of the 1980s, and I'm looking for a few shirts to match: the proto-cyberpunk satire American Flagg, the porno-noir Black Kiss (both by the intestimable Howard Chaykin), and Starstruck, which was a weird riot-girl-meets-rocky-horror thing with beautiful art and ...

Re: who is this??

Hard to say. Unless you know the outfit who put it out, and they have a bit of a name, my guess is not much. It's not actually Kruger, whose shirts actually command a couple of bucks, but if you mention it's Kruger-inspired, you might get $25. Never actually tested the theory, tho- you could ...

Re: who is this??

No idea who the dude is, but the style suggests Barbara Kruger. She's a political artist who was big in the 80s/90s and is most famous for this picture, which you could not avoid if you were anywhere near the fine arts department of a college or university. She did a lot of work with photomontage ...

They gave him a number, and took away his name: good thing it's written on the shirt. From the 70s, I think- from a passel of shirts I picked up from an ex-radio man's collection. Transtees of USA, 100% cotton, made in Pakistan, XL: 18"pit-to-pit, 28" back collar to hem. Nifty punk graphic, but as ...

About to come into a cache of rare 70's promo shirts- Uriah Heep, Jack Bruce, Southside Johnny and the Asbury Jukes, and obscure prog-rock acts Horslips and Triumvirat. Potentially lucrative- problem is, the print on many of them is rubbery-seemingly, sort of like an iron on. And some of these are ...

Re: Vtg Andy Warhol The Plastic Show??

That's a late 80s/90s bootleg of a handbill for one of Warhol's multimedia events sometimes involving the Velvet Underground. Probably some enterprising head shop put that together in their basement.
