From The VintagePimps Vault - Part 2








Ebay Tee(s) of the Day - Dr. J and Andre the Giant



Today is one of those days when I can't decide between 2 tees for the Ebay Tee of the Day post, so I figured why not put them both up. The above 2 tees are being sold by Ebay Blog Sponser and vintage t-shirt legend Vintage Retro Wear. I think I might have to buy these! How can you go wrong with a Dr. J Last House Call tee and a Andre The Giant 1980's WWF tee? Aren't vintage tees just works or art?!

Five Burning Questions for HATTRICK VINTAGE



  1. When did you first get into collecting and selling vintage t-shirts? I''m going on 10 years selling vintage shirts.
  1. What is the most money you ever sold a vintage t-shirt for? 350.00 for a 1977 led zeppelin.
  1. Which shirt in your personal collection would you NEVER part with? And why? A 1983 clash tee I bought at the US festival...why I wouldn't part with it...well that is my favorite band and that was the last gig those guys did with Mick Jones in the band...plus it's just a kick ass shirt.

 
  1. For someone starting to collect and wear vintage tees, what suggestions do you have for them? Buy from someone you trust so you don't get taken by those who sell reprints as the real deal. And if your think they are rock shirts....make sure they have the copy right date below...as 99% of rock shirts from the 80s will have a copy right date below the print ...most 70s rock tees don't!
  1. What is the driving force behind your passion for vintage tees? Is this a lifelong affair?! I worked for rock bands selling their t-shirts from gig to gig...worked for acts such as Social Distortion, The Cramps, Rollins Band, Peter Murphy, Joe Jackson, Lords of the New Church, OMD, Stan Ridgway (wall of voodoo) just to name a few..so I really just have fun selling swag, plus some of these shirts bring back a blast from the past for me.
