A Highly Collectable and Original `Destroy` T-shirt , From The Seditionaries Collection, by Vivienne Westwood & Malcolm McLaren, c1977, from the famous Kings Road Shop. The label has been removed (many years ago) by the owner. (1) History Statement about the Destroy T-Shirt From `Punk Fashion History`: "Perhaps the single most famous/controversial t-shirt is the Destroy one featuring the word Destroy, a massive swastika, an upside down Jesus on a cross and a postage stamp with the Queen on it. From afar you can just make out the word and swastika. You have to look closely to see the other motifs - A typically ambiguous and deliberately provocative t shirt. If there was a political agenda here it was a situationist/anarchist one to confront, subvert and confuse. The important thing to note here is the swastika was just one of many motifs used and a powerful one."
