Hi, I found this in a thrift store in Alabama. I was wondering if anyone knew the meaning of this or if it is worth anything? I thought maybe Earth Wind & Fire, but can't find any shirt of theirs like this.


The label inside reads: Wrights 50% Cotton/50% Polyester.

Hey Moonbeam -

You uploaded files in zip format - everyone is a little hesitant to download - can you just upload the photos only? thanks

No idea. Sorry - don't think it's EW&F though.

Possibly an early Earth Day t-shirt. Earth Day was created in 1970, and there was really no consistency in styles or merchandise until the 90's, at earliest. Eventually they morphed with the Green movement, and you'd see a lot of green designs on Earth day merch.

I would hold the shirt to see if Earth Day becomes something bigger than it is today. Society is changing...perhaps in the future, Earth Day may become higher profile in the years ahead. At which time such shirts will become more popular, esp. older ones.
