I thought I read a post stating that the "real" patches had a name embroidered on the "7" on the patch... something like "Hess." Am I smoking crack here guys?!? Does anyone know anything about this?
Thanks Roger... along the bottom half of the "7" there is supposed to be a name that is pretty legible (in the same red thread)... I can't see it on your pic.
Here is a couple others that I have. I have not seen what you are talking about. I examined the ones that I posted with a magnifing glass and see nothing like your talking about.
I was told there some differences in the patches that were on authentic jerseys. I was thinking they had the years on them?
I did my best to show where the letters are. Sorry for the slopiness, but look at this one and then go back and look at the other pictures and you'll be able to see it.
I ran to check mine and both of the ones that I have with 75th patches on them have the HAV. I'm always a little worried when I read these things that I may find something wrong..but I'm good here.
Does anyone know if the non-game worn ones do not have this on the patch? I love learning these little minor things to differentiate the real deal from some store jersey. Thanks.
I was looking for something stitched real small in black or white. It is there if you get it in the right light. This is the one on my Sanders jersey. Takes a critical eye to pick up on that. Thanks, I learned something.
The fakes are generally missing the "HAY" stitching, and there are a lot of them out there. A lot of the questionable patches can even be found on Mitchell and Ness' throwback jerseys.
