Here's a link:

Seller says he couldn't watch every episode to find out which show he wore it in... Sounds suspicious.

With that shirt listed at that price I should list the cigar cutter I have. Ah probably not!
Seems quite high to me, under a $1000 is more realistic.

Well I know that type of Paradise Found shirt was indeed worn by Magnum on the series, but Planet Hollywood is known for having MOVIE or TV USED props and wardrobe that sometimes wan't actually USED, but a copy so with that being said...who knows if it really was or not. The camo hats that were sold on ebay from a prop house could actually be authnticated using camo pattern that were compared to screen captures, short of that..really hard to tell. I agree though, the starting price is WAY over priced.

The Red Jungle Bird shirt was in the Smithsonian, not the Star Orchid!

This shirt in particular was never worn by Selleck in any episode, only Garwood Huddle wears a similar pattern and color in season 5 and also the woman in double jeopardy wears a similar blue shirt.

I did find TM wearing the green version of the shirt, but not the blue one yet. It seems the blue one he wore was different all together.
The one Garwood Wore:
The Ebay one (Which by the way has been taken down):
The one worn by TM in a few season 2 episodes:
The green version:

The aloha shirt is called "Star Orchid" and was worn in 6-8 episodes.

don`t know what you are talking about. i know exactly which shirts he wore and which not and i know exactly their name. the shirt on ebay was used in the garwood huddle episode and not double jeopardy that was a mistake, just looked through my archive and it is j digger doyle season 1, she`s wearing a blue shirt with a similar pattern liek the one one ebay.

Hi PW...So are you saying "The ebay shirt is not a Star orchid shirt?"
I don't see the ebay shirt matching the pattern of the Garwood shirt..The pattern on the top and second button are different

I wasn't very clear on my post. I was talking about wether or not Magnum ever wore a black STAR ORCHID shirt on Magnum, which he did.

not wether or not the shirt in the ebay auction was worn. It would take a long time to go through all the episodes and try to match up the pattern.

Everyone will have to excuse me..I'm a little under the weather
