Late Night With David Letterman 1982 Vintage Kid’s T-Shirt

$27.95

Late Night with David Letterman was an American late-night talk show hosted by David Letterman. It premiered on NBC on February 1, 1982. Letterman’s persona was that of a wise-ass little brother. He invented, or at least personified, a generation of ironic comedy that commented on the media, even as his show was a part of it. He developed signature goofy segments like “Stupid Pet Tricks” and often found comedy in the mundane, just by being himself in unexpected situations. He hosted Late Night on NBC for 11 years and then lost out to Jay Leno in the bitter battle to ascend to Johnny Carson’s Tonight Show chair. On CBS, though, he was expected to turn into a grown-up, but Letterman stayed goofy. He also became more serious. Politicians came to visit. He became known as a great interviewer, but remained a comedian and a true king of late night TV.

He hosted Late Night on NBC for 11 years, and then lost out to Jay Leno in the bitter battle to ascend to Johnny Carson’s Tonight Show chair. As a result, Late Night moved to CBS, where he was expected to turn into a grown-up, but Letterman stayed goofy while also finding his more serious side. Politicians came to visit, and he became known as a great interviewer, but remained a comedian and a true king of late night TV.

Details


Like all our designs, this one is treated with our signature ‘relic-ing’ process which includes our own secret recipe of hand-painted chipping, cracking, fading, and just the right touch of yellowing to ensure that it looks the part of a true vintage imprint.** We lay these works of art down on premium Gildan 5000B tees, one of the best-wearing kid’s t-shirts available today, via state of the art direct to garment (DTG) printing which allows us to create a vintage effect that simply can’t be accomplished with other printing methods. In short, this youth pro weight tee is perfect for every kid who wants a comfortable shirt to play, relax, or romp around in and our durable, high-quality prints will survive many adventures.

  • Regular fit
  • 100% preshrunk jersey knit cotton (fibre content may vary for different colors*)
  • Light fabric (5.3 oz/yd²)
  • Tear away label
  • Seamless double-needle 3/4″ collar with double-needle sleeve and bottom hems

Sizing


Not sure what size is your best fit? We recommend taking one of your current t-shirts, laying it flat and measuring it. The measurements in the chart below are taken with the shirt laying on a flat surface. To get the length, measure from the high shoulder point down to the bottom of the shirt. To get the width, measure approximately 1-inch below the armhole, across the chest, from seam to seam. While our tees are all made using premium, pre-shrunk, ring-spun cotton, there can be some shrinkage depending on your personal wash and dry cycles. With that said, if you’re on the fence, we always suggest going up a size.
