2009 Mets BP jersey possible problem

[Swoboda4]

Does anyone have, or have knowledge of the 2009 Mets Majestic batting Practice jerseys? I recently picked up a Sheffield 2009 with MLB hologram sticker LH 437018, size 50, 0068. Item came with letter from Amazin Memorabilia for use and collected on 10/4/09, Sheffield's last game played. I was surprised to see the Mets on front and NOB and number on back made of a ONE PIECE FELT MATERIAL and appears PRESSED ON. I haven't found any photos of him wearing it and the question is not whether he favored wearing it, which apparently he didn't, but is this real?

Robert,

Yes, the BPs from 2007-2010 were press-on felt-like material. The only nice thing about them was the embroidery through the logo. I will try to post some pics of ones I own or have owned to illustrate.

Here you go... Looks like you have nothing to worry about except a poorly made jersey! Thankfully Majestic came to their senses an abandoned this concept after 2010.

Nick, God love ya. Thank you. The documentation was, and now you, were the only things saving me from thinking I didn't do my homework. The transfer process for the patches I think is called Lextra and they haven't been around very long. I guess i'll stop worrying thanks again. PS: Mailing out tomorrow the paperwork plus some extras.
