Two shirts modeled after the unlockable shirt Heather can wear in the PS2 version of Silent Hill 3 (code: SH3_Wrestlarn). In May 2003 the Scandinavian gaming publication Gamereactor held a contest in conjunction with the release of Silent Hill 3. I’m not sure of the particulars of the contest…I assume a raffle? But I do know it was hosted by  the Swedish, Danish, and Norwegian editorial staffs and the prize for the winners was one of these tops designed by Gamereactor Sweden’s editor-in-chief. Apparently only 100 shirts were produced according the congratulation letter from Konami! These shirts and contest letter were a gift from Adam B. and his brother who saw an article about my collection on Polygon back in 2014. I’m really grateful as I haven’t really seen these out in the wild and I’m sure if I ever saw an auction they would be difficult to obtain without spending an arm and a leg!

Adam was also nice enough to translate the Konami prize letter as well:

Congratulations!

You are one of 30 winners of a Silent Hill 3 Gamerreactorshirt! They are produced in just 100 copies. Hope you will get a lot of use for it in the summer heat.

I would also like to promote the summer campaign that is ongoing for one of our other games, Dancing Stage Mega Mix for PlayStation 2. The first dancing game for PlayStation 2. At the moment you can buy the game + dance pad at the retail chain GAME for 649SEK. Offer valid while stock lasts. The dancing games are a huge hit in England where they sold over 1million copies since last year! There will be more dancing games from Konami in the fall. But take the opportunity to try it out right now!

With best summer greetings
