Bizarre version of the Killers jersey with 1982 on the backprint. The Killers tour finished in September, so no way was this printed for a possible continued tour. The quality is too good for a bootleg in my opinion. Compared with the genuine 1981 jerseys, this shows slight differences in placement of TM's and has no year whatsoever on the front copyright.
As far as i know there are Number of the beast shirt saying `83 as the tour were supposed to go on and also hit Sweden?!
They did not play here on the Beast tour.
Or am i lost here?
Great shirt by the way!
Correct, the Number of the Beast shirts state 1982-83. That tour finished up in December, so mid way through the year, they were expecting it to kick on into the new year. If the Killers shirts had 1981-82, you could assume the same. I think Quixotic is on the right path - likely to be an FC or record store shirt from 82 - a way of still selling that design after the tour was over.
quixotic on
Could it be a reprint avaible from mailorders at this time?
