Here is a black, pre-worn T-Shirt, size XL (read measurements below) from 1997 that is in good worn condition for its age with just a little fading and light wear to the neck band. The T-Shirt measures 25 inches across the chest measured under the arms and from the back of the neckband to the bottom hem is just over 30 inches making it a comfortable size XL or TIGHT size XXL so please know your size! No holes or stains that I could find. Minimal scaring to the large graphic. In VERY small letters, at the base of the graphic it says that it was printed in 1997 by NBC and Buffalo Bob.
And just so you know.....
Howdy Doody was a children's television program (with a decidedly frontier/western theme, although other themes also colored the show) that aired on NBC in the United States from 1947 until 1960. It was a pioneer in children's programming and set the pattern for many similar shows. It was also a pioneer in early color production as NBC used the show in part to sell color television sets in the 1950s.
Howdy Doody himself was a freckle-faced boy marionette, and was originally voiced by Buffalo Bob Smith. The Howdy Doody marionettes were created and built by puppeteers Velma Wayne Dawson and Rufus Rose throughout the show's run.
The redheaded Howdy marionette on the original show was operated with 11 strings: two head, one mouth, one eyes, two shoulders, one back, two hands and two knees. Three strings were added when the show returned—two elbows and one nose. This gap-toothed puppet in cowboy boots remains a favorite baby boomer childhood memory and popular culture icon.
