1992 Stranglers in the Night Shirt

Post by afterglow »

Hello, I recently came into a few shirt from a former employee of IRS records -- Some of which I cannot find record of online. This Stranglers tee is one of them! I can find reprints, but no originals. Looking to see what a fair evaluation on this one is. I have some other shirts from recent hauls that I will be uploading here soon as well.
Thanks!

Another cool one. This one I did manage to find:

depop.com/products/freakboutique-vtg-1992-the-stranglers-punk/

Though it's considerably beat up.

Although those blue bar SS tees can shink like crazy, so that might be your biggest obstacle.

What other goodies did ya find?

Thanks for finding this! This is around the value I was thinking. Surprisingly this tee is pretty big, definitely a true XL, but it may have never been washed based on the crispiness of the print.

He mentioned his son had cleaned out his closet years ago so I'm glad he still had a few good ones! I was able to find comps for most but I will likely be posting the Go-Go's tank top here soon.

Yeah, I can see that, just noticed it's one of the 90s ones, and not just cotton!
