UPDATED description: Official re-print of this classic Bestial Warlust shirt from their Nov 4, 1994 show in Adelaide (can only imagine how devastating this show must have been), licensed directly from Damon Bloodstorm himself (who I acquired this from, 5-7 years ago if I can remember). 50 units officially printed by Tom Patchmaster (Mexico).
Long story short: I designed this reprint back in 2013, making it as close as possible to the original t-shirt. It was then produced by Tom Patchmaster from licence of Damon Bloodstorm. Tom contracted a Mexican guy to print the t-shirts and the deal was to make a single run of 50 official pieces. Once the supposedly first and only batch of limited t-shirts was sold out, the Mexican secretely produced a lot more runs of t-shirts to make good money and when Damon noticed that the supposedly very limited t-shirt was literally offered for sale everywhere, he called out Tom asking what the hell was happening. Tom realized the Mexican was making more t-shirts and they both called him out. I still have the copy Tom gave to me when he got the first batch, and if you got yours from Damon, it's the original/official first run of 50.
Thanks for the clarification and the history of this reprint. Now I recall that 50 of these were official and Damon had a handful of extras he put up on ebay around that time I guess, and that's where I nabbed this one from him.
