anniemouse Posted April 29, 2016 Share Posted April 29, 2016 Are early T Shirts rare. Were they something that was official to the tours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sk8rat Posted April 30, 2016 Share Posted April 30, 2016 for the most part, official tour shirts that were produced during led zeppelins touring tenure are somewhat rare. some are obviously more rare than others and some sizes are harder to find than others. I would say large and xxl are the most common. the xxls were rarely bought so somtimes new ones pop up on ebay and used large ones are on ebay all the time as well. I rarely see small and medium sized shirts for sale. I dont think there were any official led zeppelin shirts until later on . there was the atlanta pop festival t shirt that robert wore in 1969 when they were there. here is a small list of official lz gear from when they were touring. http://www.ledzeppelin.com/photos/memorabilia/vintage-swag Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pb! Posted April 30, 2016 Share Posted April 30, 2016 I disagree that large and xxl are the most common of any authentic shirts from the 1970's - I would say 99.9% of 'vintage' shirts sold online sized XL or larger were produced recently. The 1975 tour shirts were the first sold as souvenirs; any earlier than that were only issued to roadies and security, etc. and are very rare.

anniemouse Posted April 30, 2016 Author Share Posted April 30, 2016 That is what struck me. The notion that an audience member could by an official T shirt seems a much more recent phenomenon. I can imagine those crew T Shirts are worth a small fortune now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chillumpuffer Posted April 30, 2016 Share Posted April 30, 2016 I still have both my Knebworth tee shirts. They are still in great condition but I am slightly bigger than I was when I was 17 ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anniemouse Posted April 30, 2016 Author Share Posted April 30, 2016 Wonder how many of them are still around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Balthazor Posted May 5, 2016 Share Posted May 5, 2016 I've got a 1971 World Tour t-shirt that I found at a second-hand store. I have no idea if it's an original or a reproduction. It has no tag on it anywhere, which makes identification more difficult. I assume it's a repro, but I have no idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know of any legitimate 1971 tour shirts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
