    Our college age son regularly goes through the "rag" bags at a small community thrift store for those dingy torn shirts. He'll often have several at 50 cents each - because that is the cost of the entire bag - so, actually the thrift store makes more money overall. He knows how to treat them to bring them back to a wonderful condition. His degree? Art History!

    I must say Kevin, out of all the resellers I watch, you are the most informative and generous Seller! You sharing your hard earned knowledge for free like this is commendable. I feel sorry for anybody that joins and pays reselling channels when they can learn a lot from you and the inter-web! God bless you and your family!! You and your family rock Kevin!

    There’s a few local young guys in their 20’s that fly thru the t shirt sections of all the thrift stores just to find vintage t shirts of value. They’re in and out within minutes. Makes my day when I find something else or one of the vintage t shirts they didn’t get. It’s more miss than hit with vintage t’s but it’s the best when u find one. Happy hunting.

    Great episode with a lot of great advice. It's funny how what is hot changes over time. I have several old ringer shirts, but am waiting for them to comeback into style. 90's rap has eclipsed 70's & 80's rock in terms of value...though some of that is due to supply. As for Harley, black shirts w/ Made in USA do better than white shirts or those made outside the states. As for sourcing, I haven't located a "vintage" shirt in any Goodwill in years. I don't know if many of them are even making it out onto the floor. 90% of the shirts I see in Goodwill (and most thrift shops) have print-on tags☹

    Hi Kevin. I'm not into clothing but I was wondering. If you do find a dry roy T that has never been worn or washed, is there a product that can be used to slow or retard the progression of dry rot. I know that to mount for display you need to use acid free products. Love the videos.

    Just wondering about yellowing on a white shirt, I passed on a cool Dale Earnhardt shirt yesterday, because the whole shirt was yellowing, and I had a fear that i could not get out. Is there anyway to get it truly white again?

    • @TheOldTapeArchive
      @TheOldTapeArchive Год назад

      I let it sit in a warm/hot water wash with bleach for an hour (not too much bleach!), while also adding Shout or a similar stain remover on the darkest yellowing, incl under the arms. Rub gently with a cloth. If it's from years of sweat, the yellowing likely won't go away, but it may help a little. White Earnhardt shirts don't sell nearly as well as black from my experience, and most from post 2001 are not great sellers, because the shirt presses went into overdrive after he passed. And of course, the larger the better. Good luck!
