LBB/After Dark Tee

White/marigold. Size: small. Chest: 17", length: 23.5". 100% cotton.

Get ready to turn heads in this stylish, limited edition all-cotton t-shirt, inspired by the "national magazine of entertainment." After Dark published monthly from May 1968 to January 1983, and covered everything cultural, high and low: dance, art, theater, film, celebrity, fashion, and city life. For its entire decade and a half run, After Dark existed on the edge of stealth, revealing its identity through its homoerotic aesthetic and cultural alignment while never coming out explicitly as a gay publication. “I wrote for After Dark which was a gay magazine that never said it was a gay magazine,” says Michael Musto, a legacy journalist who has covered all things queer since the 1980s. Uniquely, the magazine left a vivid legacy, one that documented and depicted gay life during a cultural boom between the major historical bellwethers of Stonewall and AIDS. Item #3467
