SCP Puckett jersey - photo match?

[boblaze]

Hey guys,
I'm new to game used jerseys (as you can see by my post count) and have just been sort of watching and trying to get a feel for things before actually jumping in and purchasing something.

I wanted to post this auction, but did not want to draw attention if someone was planning on bidding on the jersey. Anyway, I was wondering if this would be considered a photo match on it.

Thanks for any help and information.

That's nothing but a style match showing that Kirby wore that style jersey.
In order to photomatch it you should be able to see how the jersey's are alike whether it be via loose threads, pin stripe/number locations, etc.
Hope that helps.

Actually - it looks a bit promising to me but since the card image is small it's hard to determine. I found a larger image of the card on google. The placement of the front numbers in relation to the pinstripes looks close enough to warrant further research as does the placement of the sleeve patch in relation to those pinstripes on the sleeve.

You can zoom in on the comc scan, just put the cursor over the card and select zoom. Pinstripes all seem to match up on the letters. Would that be good enough or do you need actual game information?

Where besides Getty could I find more images?
