Game Jersey or Retail Yankee Jersey?

Guy's

Below is a picture of a early 90's Yankee jersey. Can you guys take a look at the Tag's at the bottom & give any input. I see that the Year Tag is not on there.

Thanks again

Any Russell logo on the sleeve? Any number on back?

Also looks like one of those Intera tags, which I don't know much about, but I've seen a 1993 GU jersey with it. Also had a year tag above the Russell tagging.

No russell "R" on the sleeve. Not aure about any or what number is on the back.

I can ask about the number if needed. I was just courious about the tags for starters. If the tags were no good i would just pass on it.

Thanks

The Intera tag was only used in some Russell pro-issued jerseys in 1992 and 1993, mainly. It did not appear on retail examples. The Russell tag would indicate 1992 origins, although it could have been worn the next year, instead.

Thanks again Dave

It actually has a number 2 on the back but those years would be Mike Gallego I believe.

I think it might be Alvaro Espinosa

Not sure why a year tag is missing, but it's probably team issued at worst.. just my feeling.

Espinoza wore. 47, 20, 12, and 13. I'm going with a Gallego jersey

To early for a Jeter i think

It is most definitely NOT a Jeter.

Agreed. The last Intera tagged jerseys I have seen were in 1994, and those would have had the 125th Anniversary patch on the right sleeve. Plus, 1994 Intera jerseys are extremely unusual...I've seen maybe 2, tops.

Dave - Good information. I have a 1994 Griffey Jr GU Seattle Road Jersey with the 125th Anniversay Patch and it has an Intera tag.
