Garrett Bennett Posted September 7, 2017 Share Posted September 7, 2017 Hey guys, I'm new to the forum, and wondering if anyone has any information about the shirt Jimmy Page is wearing in these photos? I have an opportunity to buy the same shirt, and the owner is claiming there was only 4 ever made. Any info would be greatly appreciated! -GET THE LED OUT!

Administrators sam_webmaster Posted September 7, 2017 Administrators Share Posted September 7, 2017 Don't have much info... Is it the same artist who created this one for Robert? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garrett Bennett Posted September 7, 2017 Author Share Posted September 7, 2017 Oh wow that looks so similar in style, not sure though. I don't have any info on the artist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sems Fir Posted September 8, 2017 Share Posted September 8, 2017 An example of this shirt that is worn by Jimmy Page in the above image was sold by my friend Rick Barrett for $225.00 when former Swan Song employee Shelley Kaye sold some of her items. Here's images of the front and back: Robert P.S. There was also a '75 Toby Roberts tour shirt that was sold which was a tye dye style. I have images of that shirt as well. The above shirt was given to Shelley by someone in California, so it's most likely a California artist. The Toby Roberts shirt was for $350.00.

Yea its for sale at an estate sale and they are asking $500, not sure if it's quite worth that much. Here is a photo, it's framed with Physical Graffiti, a pick, and an article on Jimmy. I'll buy it to hang not to re-sell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mook Posted September 8, 2017 Share Posted September 8, 2017 Did Jimmy have massive arms or something? That t-shirt looks all out of proportion there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sems Fir Posted September 8, 2017 Share Posted September 8, 2017 Hi Garrett, I believe they are boosting the price due to the montage display the shirt sits in. If you purchase it you may want to pull the shirt out of the display and assemble a different one. That one appears to be bulky and not eye catching for the shirt (but that's me) Mook, the shirt looks odd because of where they folded the sleeves down and flattened the shirt for the display. Jimmy did have a large right forearm. You can see how large it was in the poolside image as well as the Knebworth rehearsal image. If you need the dates of the images or to see the actual images I'm referring to I can post them. Robert Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chef free Posted September 12, 2017 Share Posted September 12, 2017 Agreed Steve, that's a terrible display. It should be mounted between glass such that BOTH sides can be seen! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
