The Smiths "The Queen Is Dead" Tour Tee 1986

The Smiths' 1986 Queen Is Dead tour was their last major world tour before the band's dissolution in 1987. Rough Trade Records produced official merchandise with the album's iconic Jean Marais film still from Jean Cocteau's 1950 film "Orphée." The band's refusal of major label deals made their merchandise rarer than contemporaries. Morrissey's working-class aesthetics and Johnny Marr's guitar work created one of rock's most devoted followings. UK-produced examples are most authentic. Value: $600–$2,000.
