Sweet Ministry Shirt

http://cgi.ebay.com.au/370329664013

I want this. And can I just say that these people selling band shirts for this much ‘buy it now’ deserve only the bitterest scorn. There is a sabbath shirt on there at the moment for, like, $700 US.

omg

That’s one of the old shirts from the Wax Trax mail order. A friend of mine had that one. The Buy It Now is definitely ridiculous, it’s a friggin t-shirt.

Makes me think of the old LucasArts logo

The best Ministry shirt design is probably either the Scarecrow or the Just One Fix w/ Burroughs in the center.

It’s a t-shirt, and a white one at that.

Ministry shirts I owned:

All Day, black print on grey - heavy duty tee, lots of those Wax shirts were nice quality. This one made it a while.

LORAH tour shirt - just a white tee with the album cover scan. By the time the shirt was comfortable and fit well, the image had faded. Shit shirt. I also bought a Twitch shirt at the LORAH show, same thing.

Mind tour shirt - black tee, large gold text and album cover, by far their best quality shirt…lasted for years (has since been reproduced)

Burning Inside shirt - the only red t-shirt I looked good in. Screen of the 12" art, and nicely done. I bought this at the Ventura show in '90, along with the black tour shirt, and the matching black canvas (still have that).

Animositisomina tour shirt, that one lasted a while, great quality tee. Al and Paul on the front, red text, tour dates on back, sometimes certain tees just fit well and last a long time.

Twitch shirt (repro) - awesome design with the logo and part of the album art on black (came out a few years ago), but the tee quality was bad news. The sleeves, neck and waist stretched too easily, and it had that uncomfortably wide/too short at the waist/too tight in the arms fit. I just gave it away eventually.

The Last Sucker shirt. Ugh, a gift from my sister, it was two sizes too large, and I believe it was a Hot Topic special. Gave it to my bandmate, he wore it to some gigs. I hated even trying the thing on. I forgive my sister, she never heard that album :wink:

Some of the old shirts i’ve owned (but can’t find anywhere now) were the : misquito-i.v. needle, the scarecrow shirt, the “casey’s last ride” train shirt, The fall/Reload shirt,filth pig,burning inside,sphictour (tapes of wrath cover) shirt . I’ve owned and lost all of these partying growing up. I remember getting the I.V. shirt, being 13 yrs.old, and just staring at it all scared cause of the scary drug thing…fun times

Burning Inside shirt - the only red t-shirt I looked good in. Screen of the 12" art, and nicely done. I bought this at the Ventura show in '90, along with the black tour shirt, and the matching black canvas (still have that).

This one is making the rounds on ebay as well for ridiculous prices (there’s a revco one too!) I’d probably buy it if it were 5$ and not 80$ (same with the revco Shirt) not about to dish out that kinda cash for something that others have worn… Kinda got a problem with wearing used clothing as it is.

I had the eye in the pyramid Psalm 69 shirt and the Sphinctour/Tapes of Wrath shirt. They’re both so worn full of holes now that I keep them only for sentimental value.
I’ve also got a sweet RevCo gold logo shirt and an ugly-ass RevCo Sexo-Olympico shirt.

Animositisomina tour shirt, that one lasted a while, great quality tee. Al and Paul on the front, red text, tour dates on back, sometimes certain tees just fit well and last a long time.

Is that the one where Al is calling upwards in Paul’s direction? That’s the only Ministry t-shirt I have. I used to only wear it on certain occasions as I didn’t want to wear it out but then it got attacked by bleach in the washer and now it’s just stored away as an item of interest. It was a great t-shirt, looked and fit great.

Once ordered a Land of Rape and Honey t-shirt but the order fell through so I didn’t bother looking for another one.

The revco shirt grmpy posted is ridiculously cool as well as overpriced.

The only ministry shirt I owned was casey’s last ride.

check this one out

old school.

Those shirts were so cool. Very wearable, as opposed to the latest artwork.

You ain’t kidding brother! The shirts now are not wearable at all! You’d look like some kind of Nazi sympathizer showing your support or some shit!

Pretty much nothing after the RGB shirts are Wearable!

My absolute favorite Ministry t-shirt of all time is probably my vintage Work for Love hentai Tee. I got that off of E-Bay in its very early days. I’ve worn that to nearly every Ministry gig I’ve attended in the past decade and only the older hipsters in attendance have any clue what it’s all about.

Yes, that’s the one…looks like he’s howling…or firing Paul.

I’ve got the Animositisomina tour shirt, a Scarecrow shirt, and the Great Seal of Anarchy shirt. All have been through hell and back, and have held up like champions.

Does anyone have that hentai Work for Love shirt, by any chance? That’s like my favorite thing ever.

No Ministry shirts on this page (but there is a RevCo design), and I’m sure they’re all unauthorized, but they are nice screens, and good quality tees (better than a lot of the reprinted crap on eBay). I bought a green Wax Trax (round logo) from these guys earlier this year. I’d say they’re worth the $15.
