I don't recall anyone posting their thoughts on this Billy Martin jersey. I think this is the second time it has been offered and was looking for anyone's opinions. Thanks

I was kind of surprised no one bid on the Martin the first time around. I have one from 1988 so I'm not really in the market for another. I don't claim to be an expert but it looks good to me. I have a 1980 Rudy May road and the stitching of the name in the collar is quite similar. My '88' is a size 42 but I don't believe that's a big difference.

Avoid it. The embroidery font in the NIC is not consistent with acknowledged GU/TI 1979 Yankees jerseys. This is especially evident on the year digits.

Yes, I thought so. In addition, the black armband was horribly done. Very obvious when placed side by side with the real thing.
