Can anyone confirm this is a 1984 original. It seems band new. Tag is crisp, colors are as new. So difficult with some of these shirts. Everyone’s opinion is greatly appreciated

It's a deadstock piece, what's the pit to pit just to confirm?

19” pit to pit. Can you explain what exactly “deadstock” means? Thanks for your help.

Sure it just means it was never worn or washed, sometimes the original buyer just never did - or sometimes it comes from old inventory that was never sold. Also known as NOS, new old stock.

Thanks, Jimmy! Just to confirm, this is a legit Priest 1984 tour shirt, not a boot or some recent reproduction?
