Has anyone had the opportunity to see the pics of 1989 Road Schmidt in Vintage Authentics auction yet? I've been collecting Phillies jerseys for 10 years and never recall seeing vertical arch style lettering on Rawlings jerseys...I thought it should always be block lettering. Unless I missed something major over the years, Phillies stopped wearing Wilson jerseys with vertical arch lettering in 1986. Am I incorrect?
What makes it more obvious is that they have a 1989 home jersey in the same auction with the block lettering on the back - and there is an obvious difference. I casually showed the two pictures to my wife and she picked it out in a matter of seconds.
The description says that it matches known exemplars. That's SIMPLY IMPOSSIBLE! I emailed Vintage Authentics to ask about it, but have not received a response.
I know this has been discussed many, many times before, but HOW could Lou Lampson write a LOA for this jersey and HOW can he continue to do what he does? Also, HOW can some auction companies continue to list suspect items, not respond to questions about items, and still continue to stay in business?
