Grateful Dead Shirt : Vintage Original (Genuine / Authentic) : 1984 :' Steal Your Face! Grateful Dead'84 Vintage Shirt! Logo - with a Bright-Red Shoulder Panel!! -- An Early / Mid'80's G.
Should I just let the photos do the talking on this one, or should I speak on its behalf? Hough, I do openly admit obviously... That it is tough to out-do the photos of this G. Well, beauty is always in the eye of the beholder - indeed... But, at least to my eye?
& for what that's worth... Shirt is simply a Grateful Dead Treasure to behold! Quite frankly, I believe this here T-Shirt to be one of the Hottest!!! Holy Red & White - Blue Suede Shoes!Well, it's safe to say that they Just Don't Quite Make'em Like' This! - or, to these' Quality' standards either! This thing is just Built To Last! But wait just a minute... As that Album was like 5-Years away when this Amazing!
Tee 1st hit the scene. And, to think that this one was just a little-baby! During that Red-Hot MCVA run that kicked-off the'84 Spring Tour!!
I mean all I can really think here is that this just Has! To be one of the finest Grateful Dead Shirts of all-time - issued by GDP!
And, to put it so bluntly... It's one of the Hottest!!!!! Let me put it this way - whomever is the way-lucky one that will be wearing this one to a Show if you even dare, that is... Well, you had just better just be ready - because Fans are going to want their Photos!
And that's no joke! Plus, this shirt even has a little extra G. To a Show over another Shirt! And ran right into Mountain Girl!
Well, as for the details on this one - please do let the photos do the talking, as I've provided as many as possible... And, I think it's also important to take a close look at the close-ups - to really see the Quality! Of which this one is manufactured. Nice & thick Cotton/Poly Blend (50/50) - the stitching on the shoulder & sleeve areas are done with some serious attention to detail, and care, etc.. take an especially close look at the Stripes!
And, by looking close - you can also see any issues that this shirt has, and... There aren't too many - Real Nice Shape! The main issue I suppose? - is that the shirt is affected by some light spray-paint haze...
Some on the design image (see the speckling), the shoulders, sleeves & body. There is some' pilling' of the fabric, common in this type of shirt-fabric the heavier-kind! , and there are a few assorted stains here & there. And, in my opinion - basically Nothing! That takes away from snapping this one in a Frame!Or, you could also just snap-it on You! I like it, I like it... The true fact of the matter is that this one really should be sitting in a Museum! The Rock'n Roll Hall of Fame!! Because at least to this guy, that's what'84 Grateful Dead does to my ears...
