This graphic dubbed "Temptation", because Grigley couldn't think of a good name at the time, and had just had watched the Martin Scorsese film "The Last Temptation of Christ". Obviously this wasn't going to a big seller at the time, but the artist dug the art, and it went into production anyway. 

This size large Fruit Of The Loop tee has been altered, it has cut-off sleeves, and a chopped hem (basically an 80's Vert Shirt) is from the personal collection of the one and only Gregory Bevington, of Vision Skates "Psycho Man" fame! Gregory worked in the Vision Art Department during its heyday, in the Mid 1980's.

Gregory is also the original inspiration of Andy Takakjian's Infamous Vision Psycho Stick Skateboard. The image Andy T. used for the Psycho Stick was an outtake from an "Ex-Voto" photo-shoot that Andy was the photographer for. (Gregory was the front man for Ex Voto, a gothic band from Orange County, California.) Andy had gotten the request from Brad Dorfman to do a “Psycho Stick” design/graphic for a new skateboard deck, he just pulled that photo, played with it, and the rest is history.

-If I'm not mistaken?, Chuck Hults did the shape for that deck.

I know that some of these Vintage Tees go for top dollar from different collectors, all over the world. This is an example of someone who I don't know, trying to sell a vintage Old Ghosts Tee. I have noting to do with this seller, except for the original artwork, and production of the original tee shirt. Here's a link that I happened to find online recently, just for reference. Seems steep to me, but what the hell do I know?
