Anyone got any pics of their collections? I have recently become interested in vintage clothing, not in a hipster way but just because....c'mon old stuff is cool!!!

Cyclone - Demoshirt

Death - Leprosy

Holy terror - International terrorism

Motorhead - 1983 tour

Repulsion - Slaughter of the innocent

Slayer - Slatanic wehrmacht

Damn that CYCLONE shirt looks great!
Did you get it from Guido ?

Nah Guido only has one of each left of his Cyclone shirts.
Kind of crazy story this specific shirt has. Back in 1985 Cyclone got a slot opening for Destruction in Aalst. The band rushed to get their 'In the grip of evil' demo out, and Guido drew a logo to put on their first shirt. They pressed 100 shirts and 250 demo's and all got sold at that show. A friend of the band send one to his tapetrade-pal in the US, maybe the only shirt that ever made it over the Atlantic. 20-something years later that tapetrade-pal was out of metal and I bought his Cyclone shirt for a dirt cheap price. And thus the shirt returned to me, who lives only 3 kilometers away from the venue where the shirt was originally sold in 1985.
I also have a Cyclone/Blessed death shirt from their '88 tour. Their shirts almost never turn up so grab one when you can.
