photomatch opinions needed please!!

[markize]

i would appreciate it if i could get some opinions on this possible photomatch. the first 3 pics are obviously the bat, and the 4th pic is from 7/1/03 vs the orioles, and the 5th is from 7/4/03 vs the red sox. also need comments on the dark blue ink transfer on the bat. i checked the 2003 all star baseball, and looks like a darker blue ink on the game ball, which could produce a darker ink transfer....any ideas? thanks for looking!

Re: photomatch opinions needed please!!

you need a closer pic... and it helps to line the items up... a little photoshop can help in getting the bat and the real pic together... makes it a little easier to look at

yes, thanks. that is what i needed to hear. i tried to enlarge the original pic, but it was hard to get a clear look and stay under the pic size requirement for uploads. thanks for your help.

Yeah, that is a photomatch. You can tell bt the amount of pine tar and where it is. And right above the tar there is a three bleu line pattern and that is in the picture.

2003 All Star game balls have black ink for the logo the laces are black and silver. If you want a pic of GU 03 AS balls let me know. Thanks Brian

I would definitly say it's a match, but I'm no expert. You need to get the opinion of kylehess10. Kyle is a great guy, and from my experience knows about everything there is to know about photomatching. Also he can make a better side by side photo.

It looks pretty close, but the photos of your bat aren't rolled to the same degree as the one in the photos.
