Hello all!

I found this Nirvana T-shirt from small citys fleamarket in Finland. What i have read it seems legit, only thing i'm considering is the tag, because it's not having Tultex written over to it. Defunkd had an article about tags in these shirts and it says that its also made with Tee Jays tag. Overall T-shirt feels real deal with attic smell. 😃

I got tip to ask from here about this shirt and I hope some of you guys knows about it it bit more. 👍

looks legit

"Vintage" shops in the US are full of '90s AOP reprint shirts on deadstock blanks. This particular type of shirt I would be hesitant to buy just because of the sheer amount reissues/fakes sold as originals.

See this post here with two of these sshirts described as bootlegs both on Giant tags that are slightly different:

I was going to mention the same thing. This exact Nirvana print in particular has been popping up everywhere lately, the bulk of them are fake reprints designed to look like the original. That's as much as I know. You may be taking a risk by purchasing it.

Tee Jays tags were indeed used on some vintage Nirvana T-shirts, especially in the early '90s. The fact that it’s not a Tultex tag doesn't automatically mean it's fake. Attic smells and the shirt's overall feel are good indicators of authenticity. Comparing the design details and print quality to known originals can also help. My friend suggested I use https://academized.com/thesis-writing-service when I was struggling with my thesis, and I’m so glad I did. The service was professional, and the writers did an amazing job with my thesis. It was well-written and organized, and it met all my academic requirements. If you’re feeling overwhelmed with your thesis, this service can help you get back on track. It made a big difference for me, and I was really happy with the results.
