Just when you think it can't get any crazier, take a look at this current Broadway Rick's item:
It is being sold as a Greg Luzinski 1976 Phillies road gamer.
There could not be more problems with this jersey, including:
1. The Phillies wore Wilson in 1976. Likewise, the only wore Wilson brand from 1949-1986, with one exception being in 1979 when they wore maroon jerseys made by Rawlings.
2. Name on back should be on a plate
3. Tagging is not even close.
Why am I even documenting these issues, when the simple fact is that the Phillies did not EVER wear Rawlings in 1976! NEVER.
I am attaching a few photos of my 1976 road Luzinski for you to compare. Note, that my jersey has all of the usual charateristics found on a real 1976, or for that matter, Phillies gamer from this era:
1.Name on a plate, not directly sewn on back
2.Tagging/embroidery in the collar, not tail
3.Sleeve patches intact
Considering Lampson has written LOA's on Orioles green St. Patrick's jerseys that were never worn, why am I surprised to see him slap a LOA on this?
Eric, I have contacted Broadway Rick on this, however, like all of my emails to him on items in question, I have not heard back. Likewise, if someone can provde me with a contact address, phone number or email for Lampson, I'll be more than happy to also follow with him.
