Is this jacket an authentic TDS tiger stripe? I’d appreciate it if someone with expertise could help identify it. Thanks!

Someone said it was made by Mash Osaka around 80s.

Hi, this is a MASH reproduction. They were made in the 2000s. The stripes are cloudy compared to originals.

Could you provide more details about this? Specifically, what are the differences between the MASH version and the original? Also, how much is the MASH version typically worth, and is it considered collectible?
Thanks in advance!

The differences are subtle, but they exist. As I mentioned, there is a phenomenon where the print may look a little blurry and cloudy on edges in some cases for the MASH print. The fade and the bleeding are something you can spot away too. You'd need to have a good eye and be familiar with originals to tell the difference. They're collectible due to them not being made anymore, but when they pop up, they're usually really affordable. I'd only spend 100~300 USD for a MASH set depending on condition. I own a shirt just like that but faded and got it for 100. I am actively buying MASH pieces, so if you'd like to sell yours, PM me. Otherwise, just enjoy it, it's a cool piece of reproduction history.
