1972-1980 Cincinnati Reds Knits

[diamondicons1]

I grew up with the 1970s Reds which have long been a favorite among game used collectors. Would like to see photos of Cincinnati Reds Knits from 1972-1980 from fellow collectors. Jersey tagging has always been a well debated issue with significant variation from year to year and even some variation in a single year…and many jerseys with very little tagging other than the wash label. Photos with tagging would be greatly appreciated. I’ll post my recent purchase from Legendary Auctions. Jersey was described as a 1970s Morgan Jersey. I believe the jersey to be from either 1974 or 1975. Label is in the interior left tail. Jersey was part of the Barry Halper collection.

Dave Grob from MEARS commented on this jersey on their site a couple weeks ago

If you are ever interested in selling or trading other game used Reds items for the Morgan jersey, let me know.

Have any of the Reds collectors ever seen a Youngblood Flynn or Zachary Reds jersey??

Dave Grob actually wrote a great and informative book on Reds items from this era. Not sure if he still has copies available but would be well worth finding out.

I'm a Knight collector and this was my first.
