Any insight here? Looks similar to some of the Fifth Column designs of the same time, but to my knowledge, they never produced any Dylan-related.

This is ringing a bell, but I can't quite remember where I've seen it. Even checked a few books.
The most expensive Dylan tee in recent years is a Mosquitohead one - fetched in the $750 to $950 range.
Then there's a huge drop off - even 70s ones fetching in the $200-$400 range (which is crazy low if you ask me.)
If it were me, I would list it high with offers, but I'm not exactly sure where it would land. Gut says in the $300-500 range?
Did you reach out to Fifth? They are pretty good at getting back.

Confirmed – not a Fifth Column design. The hunt continues.

Awesome, they are great about getting back.
When I plug it into Google lens, it brings back Sid Vicious tees, lol.

This could be an Art Dept. shirt?
They operated out of an industrial unit in Elephant & Castle , London , UK in the mid to late 1980s.
I worked in a shop that sold t-shirts from many different suppliers and remember that Art Dept. shirts had large head prints of icons such as James Dean, Marilyn Monroe , Marlon Brando etc.

Interesting, is there any information floating around online about them?

Yes, please share any info!
FWIW listed on eBay with a pie-in-the-sky number. Happy to hold onto this one for awhile
