Merch question: Has anyone every made the effort to catalogue every official merch item over the years or at least t-shirt designs from 1989 until now?

HTH!
I've been interested in the 1989-1990 era of official NIN shirts & found this small sampling in my search through the interwebs (there's one more that I thought was bootleg, but was from an authentic TVT design that I need to find again):
I think most of these may have come from the Brian83NIN IG.

Has anyone seen or pursued the really authentic looking bootlegs out of Thailand? Obviously I don't have one in hand but the tag, stitching, and screen print look pretty legit. Glad I got several of mine before these inundate the market, I've already seen several posts of people with stacks of the "Travis Scott" TDS shirt. The FDTS post below shows the process (note the tables full of shirts). I hope you already got your shirts if having an original means anything to you.
VVV Edit: I'm not faulting this IG account, def think they're doing it right.

I don't know how much they're charging, but as long as they're specific in saying these are reprints - caveat emptor.
I have never ordered from this part. account/person, but I did order a very high quality bootleg shirt from what I assume is another person/group in Thailand off Ebay about a year or two ago. It was from an account "agunpratam-0 " that appears to now be inactive on EBay. There is a newer account that is selling the same shirt now:

And this is the shirt:
The shirt has survived a good amount of washes now, hasn't shrunk, image is still crisp, etc. So you def. CAN get good quality shirts from this method, but I can't speak on this part. IG account. One would think that if they put this much effort into showing off what they are doing, that in theory they would be making decent stuff.
