Vintage Snoopy Ace Pilot 'Wisconsin' T-Shirt

This is a vintage short-sleeved t-shirt, likely from the late 20th century, featuring a graphic print of Snoopy as the 'Ace Pilot'. The t-shirt is made from a light grey, possibly cotton or a cotton-blend fabric, exhibiting the characteristic subtle flecking of heather grey material. It has a classic crew neck design with a ribbed collar. The central graphic depicts Snoopy in his flying ace persona, wearing a pilot's helmet with goggles and a blue scarf flapping behind him, suggesting motion. There's a 'WWI Ace' style wing emblem behind him with 'ACE' prominently displayed. Below the Snoopy graphic, in bold, capitalized, red lettering with a white outline, is the word 'WISCONSIN'. The print style for 'WISCONSIN' appears to be a slightly distressed block font. The overall condition of the t-shirt appears good for its age, though some light creasing is visible from storage. The fabric shows minor signs of wear consistent with use and age, such as slight pilling or softening of the material, but no significant stains, holes, or tears are apparent from the image. The colors of the graphic – blues, reds, and grayscale tones for Snoopy – are still vibrant, indicating good preservation of the print. The crafting details suggest a standard mass-produced garment from its era, with visible stitching along the seams and collar. A small, dark red tag is visible on the inner back collar, likely indicating the brand or size, but it is not clear enough to read. The item's age is estimated to be late 1980s to early 2000s, given the style of the graphic and the Snoopy depiction.
