Reveller with Year 2000 Hat


Millennium Partywear

Apart from producing a money-sucking dome, a wonky bridge, and a pretty whirlygig in London, the Millennium also created a lucrative trade in novelty clothing.

Hats with shiny 2000 logos on, T-shirts saying '1999-Game Over', 'Millennium Babe' lipsticks, Year 2000 booze and fags - merchandise was everywhere.

Problem was, a lot of it was still there on January 1st... and no longer selling quite as well.

Still, some canny collector has probably stashed some away as relics, ready to flog for millions in 2999.
