This sweet double sided shirt is for the iconic Los Angeles based rock band, Guns N' Roses. This tee is copyright 1987, the year that the band released their debut studio album, Appetite for Destruction. While it received little attention upon its initial release, Appetite for Destruction would go on to become the best-selling debut album in US history. Competition from well established bands like Aerosmith and Def Leppard barred the album from getting any airplay, and it took months of lobbying from Geffen Records for things to turn around. The label eventually convinced MTV to play the video for "Welcome to the Jungle" once a night for three nights, and by the end of it "Welcome to the Jungle" had become the network's most requested song.

Radio stations began to take notice, and the album rocketed to the top of the Billboard 200 more than a year after its release. Other singles off the album gained popularity, most notably "Sweet Child o' Mine" and "Paradise City", and the band boosted their newfound success with an extensive promotional tour. They headlined shows in both Europe and the US, and also opened for artists like Motley Crue, Iron Maiden, and Alice Cooper.

Fits like a modern unisex adult large. This shirt is has an off center print. It is soft, thin, and distressed with holes, see pics.
