Canadian Football League

[toddhead]

Does anyone have any contacts in the Canadian Football League? I am trying to get a Yo Murphy game used jersey from the Roughriders (or any team he has ever played for). I wrote the team asking about acquiring one directly from them, but I was told that my best bet is to buy a custom jersey cfl.com team store.

If you can help me out I would be willing to compensate you for yout time and effort.

Thanks
Todd

the only thing that i know about the cfl is that there are some ardent cfl collectors out there
that aren't shy about paying big $$$$ for game used items - especially vintage items. it never ceases to amaze me what vintage cfl helmets go for. i would up with two hamilton tigers gu tak29 suspension helmets from a bulk purchase a couple of years ago that i'm looking forward to listing next year. heck, i thought they were high school lids that would make good project helmets when i got them given that i know almost nothing about the cfl - glad i didn't mess with them!

Do you think there would be any interest on this 1966 or 67 Tiger Cats jersey? Southland Athletic heavy durene, "Hamburglar" sleeves, repairs, couple of tears, blood stain, #1 overall CFL draft pick (Ed Turek). Any estimate of what it might bring and does anyone have a recommendation of an auction house for vintage CFL memorabilia?

i'm not a game used jersey guy (although i'm tempted to correct this oversight after marveling at the many outstanding jerseys posted by members at the "show me your nfl stuff" thread!) but i would have to believe your fantastic looking vintage jersey would draw much more than just a little attention if you listed it. do you have a price in mind? if so, perhaps you could test the waters on ebay using the "best offer" feature. when i mentioned that i've seen cfl items go for solid prices i was referring to cfl items i've seen listed on ebay....

here are a couple of examples - i've also noticed other cfl auctions end early, shortly after the item was listed. and, fwiw, i have no idea if these items are authentic or not given that i know almost nothing about cfl equipment - but judging from the prices it appears that someone felt the were authentic!

Thanks for that aeneas01, the feedback is much appreciated! Still debating whether to list it...love the black and gold and the old heavy durene is incredible. These jerseys would turn 4.5 speed into 5.0!

That Tiger Cats jersey is a beauty! Unique jerseys of top quality and style are the reason I collect jerseys. Be patient and wait for the right CFL collector...or just keep it...very nice shirt...

Meant to say, were there any other US cfl teams on the list?

[Dewey2007]

No U.S. CFL team that I remember. I have the list on my computer at work so I will forward tomorrow morning.

[gatorcollector]

Dewey, would you please forward that list to me also? bcouture@cfl.rr.com . Thanks!

Hey Guys. I saw this post and I thought I'd ask if the jersey in the below scan may possibly be a vintage CFL jersey? It's made by Spanjian and it's a nice old durene jersey with sewn on numbers and plenty of team repairs.

I put the Cardinals jacket above the jersey to show the true color of the jersey.

Not sure, but if happens to be, it can only be from the BC Lions.. The best option would be to contact the CFL HOF, one of the curators or researchers should be able to identify it: http://www.cfhof.ca/index.php?module=page&id=11

Thanks for the list.. Some great names on there! Would you happen to roughly how many jerseys remain? I'd suspect a bunch have been sold since it's from '06..

Michael Bishop QB Argonauts. He was a Heisman runner-up...:)

Your welcome! Unfortunately I wouldn't have any idea on how many CFL jerseys remain. Although the list says '06 I suspect they still have a number of them available. They seemed friendly when I contacted them about an item but just not very quick to respond.

Toronto Argonauts Kerwin Bell (former Florida QB). This is one of my favorites in my collection.
