I have recently found a photo of myself wearing a great t-shirt and I wondered if it was an official item, or a bootleg or if anyone else had the same shirt. The photo is of me cradling my daughter (Alice - of course!) in the summer of 1997. It is a white shirt with the spider eyes on the right sleeve. The front of the shirt is the band photo from the back of the album and I think the back of the shirt said Love It To Death. I'm pretty sure I bought it from a record shop in Hull which means the shirt was nearly 10 years old when the pic was taken. I've searched for it since without luck.

I have the same shirt and mine is certainly a bootleg. Bought it @1984 but can’t remember where. Wore it to the Edinburgh gigs in 86 and it went down a storm as it stuck out from all the black Alice only shirts. Repeated it in 88 at Edinburgh and got the same reaction with several folk stopping me for a chat. Unfortunately it got stretched to hell on the second night and now resembles a maternity dress. I keep it for the memories now.

Wish I'd kept mine! I bought 2 and gave one to a mate. It was a great design. Like you say, it's different to the usual skulls and snakes stuff.
