Reseña del editor:

Vintage T-shirts pays homage to obsessional love of tees in all their guises - and the nostalgic memories they revive. Traded, given to lovers, worn until falling apart, customized and cut-up, T-shirts today are a ubiquitous item of apparel, worn by everyone, from children to the elderly. The book takes a visual journey through the worlds of music, television, film, advertising, skate and surf, entertainment and all aspects of popular culture that make this item of clothing such a longlasting and covetable staple. In addition, there are collector profile spreads that take a look at the collections and backstories of T-shirt fans and fanatics. It is a must-have purchase for all T-shirt enthusiasts!
