This authentic late-1970s ringer tee was printed by Hanes in 1979 to kick off the promotional run for the 1981 Los Angeles Bicentennial ("LA 200") campaign. Featuring a beautifully aged, classic red-and-blue graphic on a creamy off-white backdrop, it is a prime piece of California municipal streetwear history. Built with true single-stitch construction, this tee offers that highly coveted, ultra-soft, semi-sheer vintage drape that modern reproductions simply cannot replicate.
Vintage tag sizes run significantly smaller than modern day garments. Please use these flat measurements to ensure a proper fit
Overall Condition: Good vintage condition with honest, character-building wear. * Fabric: Wonderfully broken-in, thin, and soft. * Specific Flaws: * One tiny pinhole speck on the lower front abdomen fabric. * Faint, light yellow underarm discoloration typical of true vintage white tees. * A couple of very minor, small surface spots near the lower back hem.
