1984 Vintage Michael Jackson Concert Shirt


Alright so I have been a huge Michael Jackson fan since I was 5 years old. I found this amazing vintage shirt from the Victory Tour in 1984 on eBay more than 2 years ago. I didn't buy the shirt because the handful of sellers were selling them from $140-$400 each. But every now and then I would search eBay for vintage MJ shirts because I collect them and I would keep my eye out for this special gem.

Last week I finally found a seller who was cleaning out someone's estate and selling this shirt with four 8x10 concert photos from the Tour and a ticket stub from the Sept 3, 1984 show at JFK Stadium. So I didn't bid immediately since doing that always jacks the price up higher than need be. I bid at the last moment and got the shirt, photos and ticket for $60. I really only cared about the shirt but the additional stuff was neat. I can't tell you how excited I am to finally own this shirt, it is the best looking MJ shirt I have yet to see. And I love anything MJ from 1984 because that was the year I was born. Here are some closer pics of the shirt:

  1. I am only too jealous of this!
    I became a Michael Jackson fan at the age of 5 when I saw Billie Jean on Top Of The Pops 2 here in the UK.

    IN LOVE!

    I have the 9 special edition red discs myself ;)
    Nice find!
