A simple, yellow Grateful Dead t-shirt from 1967 is now the most expensive vintage rock ‘n’ roll t-shirt to ever be sold at auction. After a high estimate of $8,000, the shirt sold for $17,640! Another Grateful Dead shirt sold for $15,120! It became the second most expensive band tee ever, and the most expensive ringer T-shirt ever sold!
Sotheby’s auction house in New York has made a record sale for a vintage band t-shirt after selling an Allan Turk-designed cotton top dating back to 1967 as part of a Grateful Dead vintage memorabilia auction. We talk with a rep at Sotheby’s.
We get ready for Dave’s Picks volume 40 – which will feature two shows from July of 1990.
We chat with a photographer about his new book and meeting the band in early 1977.
