Vintage Pittsburgh Pirates Shirt
Item: Vintage Pittsburgh Pirates Shirt
Bought for: $1.50
Sold for: $4.99
Title: Vintage 90s Pittsburgh Pirates Shirt Soft L XL
Description: The word "Pirate" is from the Greek "peirates", which means "brigand". Wikipedia defines piracy as "a war-like act committed by a non-state actor, especially robbery or criminal violence committed at sea, on water, or sometimes on shore". Bearing this in mind, I can't think of a more apt name for the baseball team from Pittsburgh than the Pirates. I mean, the names Zane Smith, Mike LaValliere, and Don Slaught are pretty much synonymous with the above descriptions. Remember how Andy Van Slyke used to swing in to CF on a chandelier? Or how Orlando Merced would use a scabbard to sheath his bat? And who could forget John Smiley bringing an 1850s Colt revolver to the mound for Game 7 of the 1991 NLCS? Is anyone still reading this? Anyway, relive the glory years of the Pirates with this shirt!
The shirt is an Extra Large and measures 19" pit-to-pit. It is 50% cotton, 50% polyester, and made by Logo 7. It is from 1991. This is in great vintage condition! Thanks for looking!
