Vintage T-Shirt Forum & Community Authentication Appraisals

I recently came across this tank top from the early 1980s for Luke's Record Exchange in Pawtucket, Rhode Island. It has a Sportique tag, and the RN number comes back to the Union Underwear Company. I figured I'd share the photos since it's cool tank top, represents a bit of local pop history, and has a tag that I don't often see.

Very cool thanks for sharing. It's the ol' FOTL / Screen Stars RN.

Maybe it predates the Women's Screen Stars on this page (that also has lace on the edges):

I never really put this together until now, but it's likely the same as this tag:

Which was also tailored for women as the sizing is much smaller.

Thanks for the info! And the old FOTL RN connection helps explain why the Union Underwear Company is located on ONE FRUIT OF THE LOOM DRIVE in Bowling Green, KY.
