Stand Your Ground

This was a major want for me until last year when I finally picked it up. Mine is a lot more faded and the neck is starting to fray but I cant afford to buy a super condition one. Something about the Purple on white does it for me. I love the tiny Rev logo embedded into the design. Victory should have taken some notes from old Rev.

Some notes about this shirt that I have never gotten a concrete answer about. Some people claim this is an old bootleg as the letters are different than the original(posted below). The Rev logo is also positioned differently. Unless youre doing a side by side comparison you might not even notice

As you can see on this confirmed original, the letters extend beyond the 7″ graphic while the one for sale in the auction does not. Obviously different screens and different printing run.

Slimmer letter that are closer together. Also the purple inside doesnt completely fill the letters. Seller states “This is a genuine original GB shirt sold through Revelation mailorder back in 1988 when the 7in came out – not their first shirt but the first one sold by Rev.”

So does anyone have any concrete info on this? 90s bootleg? Label made official shirt?

    I have one of ones with the bigger letters (the top shirt). I got mine from Kevinsted, and he got it while on tour with GB. So, the shirts with the bigger letters are definitely legit.

    Oops!!! I read it wrong. You’re questioning the authenticity of the bottom shirt, not the top one. I’ve always wondered about it, since the lettering is horrible compared to the bigger (and better) lettered version. My guess is that the one with the good letters were the ones the band made, and the other version was the mail order version. Just a guess.
