Vintage Iron Maiden 1980s t shirt

Post by camis_wapas »

Hey!

I just wanted to know how to price this Iron Maiden tee, that I've got from an Iron Maiden fan. I think it could be from the 1989, but the copyright is not that clear, and the tag was removed. It has no sleeves and also has its hem cut. I don't know what price it could cost if the tee has been manipulated to that point.

It does look like it could say 1989 - I did find a similar print on Etsy that clearly says 1990 priced at $500.

Let me check in with my MP and MaidenSkinWear and see what he thinks!

Thank you Jimmy, I did the same research and I found same print on etsy. But you know, they're not in the same condition.

Just wondering, what is the MP/MaidenSkinWear?

Yeah, the cut sleeves completely kills most of the value, but I'm more intrigued by the origins of the print, tour/album wise.

He helped up with this list.

It could be related to Somewhere in time album due to the aesthetics of the graphic I think, but I don't know much about this tee either.

Yes, I checked that link sometime ago, really good guide on Iron Maiden tees timeline.

In a cut state, it still value, but yeah, $50, maybe? I haven't heard back from Mike yet about the origins of the print.

SORRY, yes here's his info:

"The Somewhere in Time “door poster” t-shirt has an original from 1988 and a 1990 re-issue. So, since it’s not a tour shirt I’m not sure if it was a promo t or what. If there is something on the back that might help. I can’t find it on Worthpoint or ValueYourMusic. So my best guess is in the condition (no sleeves) it’s worth exactlty $66.60."

No worry Jimmy, thank you a lot for all the info.

There's nothing on the back
