Nirvana's Kurt Cobain owned and worn dark blue and white striped, long-sleeved shirt. From the collection of the late Irwin Pate who passed away in May 2018. Irwin was a renowned booking agent and promotional manager for over four decades. He promoted talent all over the United States. During his career, Irwin and his wife Clarine obtained a large collection of personal clothing and articles belonging to numerous entertainers. When traveling on concert tours Irwin often would obtain many of these articles from both tour crew members or venue staff. This dark blue and white striped long-sleeved shirt was given to a venue staff member by Kurt Cobain after a Nirvana concert. The staff member was able to show Irwin a picture of him with Cobain wearing the shirt in order to verify its authenticity. The employee sold it to Irwin after Irwin told him of his collection. Cobain can be seen wearing a similar shirt in various images as well. Very good, vintage worn condition. Comes with a letter of authenticity from Clarine Pate on Pate company letterhead and Gotta Have Rock & Roll Certificate of Authenticity.
