Metallica - James Hetfield shirt; circa 19??. I have no idea what year this was produced in or any history behind it. I presume its from the early(ish) to mid 80s and i presume this is a European bootleg of some kind (bought if from a guy in Germany). Theres nothing print on the back. Ive seen another one simular to this on this site but it has lightning behind James instead of the colours and has something written on the back. If anyone has any info on this shirt, id love to hear it.

You can probably replace one of those ?'s with an 8. He definitely didn't look like that in the 90's or since.
Either way, a great image of a once mighty warrior of Metal!

I have a sweater with the same design, my father bought it in the 80's. Hetfield's hair looks grey on it, that's a bit weird.
