Thanks Rudy..It doesn't appear to match....Juan, have you ever looked closely at the thread in the collar of the Henderson to see if he collar was opened up?
As far as that Henderson goes, that is the only one of that style I have ever seen that had Sand-Knit tags in it. Sportscentury asked me to look at it in the 1990s. I rejected it then and would do the same today. Every 1982 home A's I have been comfortable with was made by Wilson, not Sand-Knit.
If it's of any help, I have a few Henderson Yankee jerseys. (from 87) The home and away jerseys feature more of a straight across stitching of the name, year and set in the collar. The font is somewhat similar to mine with few differences. (The "H" being most previlant) On my Wilson tags there are additionally a size flag tag and a tapered flag tag. Each jersey includes a straight across hem at the bottom of the jersey shortening it. Lastly the 82 I had of Dick Dobbins origin of the same style was if I'm not mistaken a Wilson size 42 which had crudely been sheared across the bottom. (A common, but not absolute trait on Henderson button down jerseys as seen with the Yanks jerseys which were hemmed.) Anyway, far be it fom me to determine the authenticity of his pictured jerseys. I would follow the Yellow Brick Road and ask the Wizard (Dave Miedema) about your jerseys there. His opinion is gold.

Try uploading to tinypic first (tinypic.com), since you can resize your photo before uploading it. Try uploading your image to 800x600. Then it'll give you an "IMG code" after it uploads. Post that code on here for the image to show up.
The stitching of the name is identical and there is no evidence of the tag being removed...I trust Grey Flannel authenticity and have never been taken for a ride with any of there pieces. Now, I took this photo 2 years ago before I stored my collection and it seems to have a fold in the jersey label. I will take better pictures and post them next week. Plus, everything that I sell is backed up by ME and this buyer has a LIFETIME guarantee on the piece. I posted this voluntarily because I know and trust the authenticity.
