Description

"It was Ringo's shirt," notes Starr's former fiancé, "and he slept in it."

Ringo Starr's personally-owned and -worn cream-colored Dr. Pepper t-shirt, no size but likely medium/large, with front reading in maroon and red: "Dr. Pepper Presents The Top 60 of the 60's!" The back of the shirt shows a DIR Radio Network logo below a list of the top 60 songs of the 1960s, which includes six songs by the Beatles: 'Hey Jude,' 'I Want to Hold Your Hand,' 'Yesterday,' 'Sgt. Pepper/A Day in the Life,' 'Twist and Shout,' and 'All You Need Is Love.' In very good to fine condition, with some light staining. Accompanied by a notarized all-purpose acknowledgment and a letter of provenance from Nancy Lee Andrews, which reads: "I…was engaged to Ringo Starr from 1975-80. I discovered this promotional only tee shirt in my long-term storage. It was Ringo's shirt and he slept in it as well as wore it around the house and pool."
