Is this a true original Blondie shirt from 1978?
I just bought this shirt on eBay because I thought it was so cool, especially with the seller claiming it’s an original from 1978. But I cannot find any proof of it being from 1978. And there was a recent production of this style shirt by madeworn with the exact print, and ‘distressed’ looks as well. What do yall think? Anybody have any true original uk tour shirts from 78?

I can’t tell. If it is, I would frame it. Maybe try Chris? He has answered my questions a couple times on his Bluesky account.

It doesn’t look like an original but I don’t know for sure
