I'm not an expert on old Lakers jerseys so wondering if anyone has any thoughts on the Flynn Robinson jersey on ebay. Doesn't have tags.

It looks as if the jersey has been pulled off eBay.

Until 1986-87, most Los Angeles Lakers jerseys were made by an area company named Tiernan. The only tags Tiernan put in any of their NBA gamers was a manufacturer tag, front center outside tail below the seam...that was it. No years, numbers, sizes, etc.. Trunks were only slightly more detailed with tagging, and not with a year.

Did Jim Thomas (Hoopstyle) die it purple ? Because the one for sale in the original post is yellow the one Jim has for sale is purple.

The funny thing is knowing Jim Thomas (Hoop-Style) he might just have dyed it purple LOL :eek:

My goodness, you're right! So, he probably didn't dye it purple, which means that the home and road Flynn Robinson's emerged on the market
at the same time...and the yellow one got swooped up pretty quick.
