No More Censorship.

By morgado | Published 03/10/2011

In addition to the 2 Cro-mags tees we showed you this morning, munstermunson1 is also selling this Dead Kennedys tee:

Honestly, I don’t know how high it’s going to go, given that it’s one of the mass marketed ones you could buy in the likes of Hot Topic in the 90s, and other than being on a white tee (and this is the first time I’ve ever seen one on a white tee), this is pretty much the same old same old. Now, if you’re actually looking for an actually rare and vintage DK related tee, you should check out collectionsgottogo’s auction for this No More Censorship Defense Fund tee, which was sold to raise money for the DK’s obscenity trial.

It doesn’t actually mention the band, but it’s a pretty rad slice of DK history, and you aren’t gonna find one in Hot Topic. And be sure to check out Vinyl Noize, as we’ve got a bunch of DK vinyl and stickers from this seller that we’re showing over there.

Thrasher Mag and Back Page Advertisements

Back in the 92-94, there were ads in the back of Thrasher Magazine for various hardcore shirts. Some appeared legit, but after receiving the item, it was pretty obvious these were not official band releases. Some of the shirts would later be featured at stores that pre-dated Hot Topic. Shops you’d see on the shore. These stores don’t exist anymore. Fuck, why can’t I think of the name of this store right now? Someone, please give me the answer. You could buy smiley face tees, GI Joe tees and Youth Of Today tees all in one shot. Pretty cool store. Definitely was before it’s time though. Now you have Hot Topics in every mall in the country spewing forth zipper pants and black fingernails. BARF.
