For the most part, Maiden's Beast on the Road US Tour was played in support of more established artists such as Priest, Rainbow and the Scorpions.
Another of those acts was 38 Special. This shirt was printed by them and given to the Maiden band and crew as a thankyou for being such a professional support band during their own US Tour.
Famously worn by Adrian Smith in the film clip to Flight of Icarus (and on the back of the single.)
In Japan 1982.
Piece of Mind writing photo session.
Hit Parader ad 1983.
Concert poster and press ads from the gigs.
Adrians? It's possible. It came from a close friend of the band...but seems unworn. I think Adrian wore his many times..
How many printed? 20,30,40?
I wonder what number still exist in this condition :)

Dude , I am sure that you have atleast one t-shirt of a band member. You should try to trace and possibly confirm this.
