Forum readers-
I made an earlier post about 1989 Bo Jackson Royals jerseys, indicating that Score Board unwornnon team issued jerseys are showing up on Ebay and various auction houses as game worn.

Here is my post:

Forum Readers-

As we all know, ScoreBoard offered Bo Jackson home jerseys for sale. These were tagged and manufactured as gamers.

Please see the current auction on Ebay:

http://cgi.ebay.com/Bo-Jackson-Royals-1989-Game-Issued-Used-Worn-Jersey_W0QQitemZ8767712510QQcategoryZ60597QQrdZ1QQ cmdZViewItem (http://cgi.ebay.com/Bo-Jackson-Royals-1989-Game-Issued-Used-Worn-Jersey_W0QQitemZ8767712510QQcategoryZ60597QQrdZ1QQ cmdZViewItem)

Earlier in the month, the same seller offered:

Whats' odd on both of these jerseys is that they are set 2. How often do you see a Rawlings Set 2 tag? Likewise, the 16 on both jerseys appears to be positioned too close to the seam and the buttons. It should be positioned further over near to the S in ROYALS. Compare the jersey in question to the photo in the seller's offering and you notice the difference in the positioning.

Thoughts?

UPDATE:

The same seller is now offering his third Bo Jackson home jersey!

If you desire yet a fourth, maybe the current American Memorabila auction has what you are seeking:

Do those Forum reades who thought there was a chance that the various Set 2 Bo's were good still believe this?

Howard, I believe there was only one user who though these were game used. At least the eBay seller has consistently listed them as only game issued.

I think we have concluded that these were all made in the spirit of "game issued" about one year after they could have been game issued.
