Though Led Zeppelin was definitly more prominent in T-Shirts and Episode Titles etc...

Absolutely no question about that.
Still was nice to find out fer sure that DP got some recognition, anyway.

I don't think I've ever seen a Deep Purple T-Shirt from the 1970's.
Purple's management never had marketing down. If they did, I bet we’d see DP T-Shirts worn on that 70’s show; and hopefully Donna would be wearing it.

I think the most famous example would be a Slaves&Masters era T-Shirt in Wayne´s World(though I just can´t identificate the motive it´s definitly not the album cover) worn by the guy who always vomits(at his first appearance when they pick him up from the street and put him into the car, also in the famous "Bohemian Rhapsody" sequence).

Re: Deep Purple on National Television Here In The States!
In one episode of Northern Exposure the character Ed Chigliak has a Perfect Strangers shirt on. I remember freaking out when I saw that years ago. Not that this little tidbit enhances the conversation going on at all but I thought I'd throw it in.

Yeah, Slash has been seen with an 'In Rock' T-shirt which is good to see.
