Original December 18, 1982 Klein’s All Sports “Midnight Madness” promotional tee from Northern Lights Mall in Syracuse, NY. This piece was made for a one-night late-night sale event (12AM–4AM), a classic example of early 80s mall-era retail marketing.
Features a bold, stylized cartoon skier graphic with strong red, white, and blue Americana influence. Not a licensed character—this is a custom event illustration typical of 80s sporting goods promotions, giving it a unique, one-off feel.
Printed on a Russell Athletic Pro Cotton tag.
