Get your vintage Star Wars T-shirts out

I have just unearthed my childhood Star Wars T-shirt from 1978. There's no sign of a copyright or a company name, so its probably a bootleg item. It really took me back though. There's a photograph of me somewhere wearing it.

There may be a slim chance my T-shirt is official. The licensee trade list that I have from 1977 has Bennett Associates of Glasgow selling Badges, stickers, bags and T-shirts but considering that their badges and stickers were reproduced items from Factors in the USA, their T-Shirts probably were too.

Marks and Spencer are also listed as selling T-Shirts in the trade list, so my one might be an example.

So, has anyone got any vintage U.K Star Wars T-shirts, or maybe pictures wearing them as kids?

They just don't make them like that anymore 8)

Sweet T dude. I had a blue ESB t-shirt with Darth Vader on the front. Wish I had a picture of that one now 8)

I love that T-Shirt, really nice!

I never bought any SW or ESB T-Shirts but I did buy a couple when ROTJ came out. I picked them both up when I went to the Star Wars Triple Bill screening at Leicester Square the day before ROTJ had its UK release.

One was white with Biker Scouts on it and the other was black with Luke and Vader on it. Both were made by Screen Stars.

This is me when we got back from Leicester Square wearing my purchase



And here are the 2 T-Shirts still looking in good nick. Photo was taken this morning
