Forty-seven years of tour shirts
Bev's archive, from the 1979 iron-on to this year's tee, and the collectors who kept them.
Written by Marcy Delgado · · 2 min read · Updated
When I started keeping the archive in 2012, I thought it would fill a shoebox. It now fills a spare room, and most of it came from you.
The first shirt
The 1979 shirt was an iron-on. Della made twelve of them. We know where nine are. If you have one of the other three, please, we would love a photo.
The Gold Coast years
The 1987 tour tee is the one collectors ask about most. It was printed in two runs, and the second run has the date in a lighter ink. On MerchVice you can see both, in the closets of the people who were there.
A shirt is a ticket stub you can wear.

Keep sending them. Every photo goes in the archive, with your name on it if you want.
