For the Fall Tour'82 1-Show stop in New Mexico!! - at the Downs of Santa Fe!!
Native American style meets the Southwestern fashion here with this Grateful Dead Rock & Roll Vintage-Beauty! " Downs of Santa Fe " Venue-Specific! For the'82 Fall Tour New Mexico Show! I mean does this Shirt just exude " Rock & Roll ", or what? Well, it sure does exude 1982 Grateful Dead...
Early-'80's Dead - in the Early-'80's " Sportswear Brand " Shirt Style!! As the famous Good Ol' saying fits in quite-well here..... As they just don't make'em'quite' like this anymore... A wild, cool & classic Early-'80's Rockin'-Bright-Purple!
Native American style Southwestern G. Lightning Blot design by Dicken Scully -- and some Out of This Universe..." Font " - that puts you right-back in your 1982-esque easy chair... - and Rockin' some G. Direct from your Nak LX-3!!! Or, maybe even your Nak LX-5? I think we were-indeed still pre-Dragon!
Speaking of Atari font, I even saw a special on the T. Not too long ago - which talked about how all of the old unopened Atari Games were buried-alive (in their boxes) - somewhere down South, maybe in Cali or AZ? I can't quite remember which...
But this I do remember - they claimed that E. Was the worst Atari Game ever... And I'm not sure I really agree? Well, either way the killer'82 Video Game Font! On this Vintage-Beauty got me a little bit sidetracked here indeed...
But, take a look at these photos, and I'm sure you can side with me... Heck, even the Oregon Ducks went with some " Atari-like " Video Game font on their Jersey #'s way back in like 2005.
Trying to get me one of those... But, let's face it - there was nothing " Retro " at all when this font was used on this Shirt design in the Fall of 1982... As that was all-about a true sign of the times, and the current-cool fashion style!!! Dang, I mean bright back the'80's! So, my overall point being...Do you agree with me? Is-this one of the Hottest! Vintage-Original Grateful Dead Tour Shirts of All-Time? My fellow Dead Fans - as this one is just Pure! Rock & Roll from head-to-toe!!!

As this is a brand new (never worn/never washed & "Collected" only) vintage-original collectible shirt - here are the issues that stand out to my eye upon very close inspection. >>> one (1) dark-brownish stain approx. 1/2 on the shirt material fabric, located on the back bottom right side of the shirt (please see photos/close-up photo #10). >>> white threads piece from the manufacturing process showing through the outside left shoulder, which can easily be carefully-cut/removed if so desired (please see photos).
>>> very-slight cracking of the design emblem images, and very-light signs of natural aging on the shirt material fabric from long-term storage - close to 35-years (please see photos). Notes : Regarding the' white-threads piece'...This is actually a great-sign to the serious vintage Collector - as the presence of external threads like these from the vintage Early-'80's Shirt manufacturing process - still hanging-out as it is, in the place in which it is hanging out (' outside' the shoulder) -- just goes to show that this Shirt is still brand new, and has never been worn. Personally, I never-ever remove these from the vintage Shirts in my Collection - as finding these is actually an exciting sign of extra-rarity to me. Please see all photos provided...
