this thing-


without the flash, but you get a better idea of what the colors are like. the pink of the e on the red shirt is pretty ghastly.



and what kinda of shirt.


found this at my parents' house the other day. they said it was mine, so now i've got it.

anybody have an idea how old this is? or, more importantly, what it's worth to a collector?

It's an Apple collectors' item. Classic iTunes motif.

Ha, I was thinking it'd been some years since I saw one of those.

I had one but black instead of red, no idea how much is it worth since I got it from Apple and then I gave it away to some friend.

What's a Rhapsody developer's shirt worth?



For an extra $10 I'll iron it.

I've got a Mission Impossible Apple t-shirt, don't know if that's worth anything either. Looks cool though.

Found some pics on google:

Keep an eye on RedLightRunner.com - Apple Logo Collectibles. They sell Apple tee shirts.

Unfortunately, the general business model of the collectable sites is to buy extremely low and sell for some obnoxiously high price. So don't be surprised at the lowball offer if you go that route.

You can try researching closed auctions on eBay to see what some similar shirts have gone for.

I have one of the shirts they were selling at MacWorld Boston in 1995, it's grey, and it says "Macintosh, the power to crush the other kids". I didn't know it at the time, but I guess it's from a Saturday Night Live skit that I never saw. My wife hates that I still have it and still wear it
