  2. I suspect that the shirt is genuine vintage, but the screen is new. The "I ♥ NY" slogan/logo was coined in 1977, but really didn't get popular until 1980. And I'm not sure how many people were loving Avenue A at that time -- at least not in the way that you'd express in a cutesy shirt!

  3. OK, OK, I know it won't be 'vintage' and all but couldn't you just get one of those made? its not like people are going to be looking for tge tag when you wear it... Just saying...
