    WTB: Game Used Flannels from Any MLB Team

    I'm starting a new collection - trying to get a game used flannel from each MLB team from the 1940's - 1971.

    If you have an old flannel jersey laying around, and want to sell it, please shoot me an email: mlheller76@yahoo.com

    Thanks!

      Keep in mind, the expansion teams in the 1970s and later (Toronto, Seattle, Colorado, Florida/Miami, Arizona and Tampa Bay) did not have flannels made for them, so your closer to your "complete set" than you think.

        Dave,

        Most teams stopped wearing flannels after 1971. Here is how I got to 29 different flannels that I would need for a complete collection from the 1940 - 1971:

        City Team
        Baltimore Orioles
        Bos/Mil/Atl Braves (No City Name Used on flannels)
        Boston Red Sox
        Brooklyn Dodgers
        California Angels
        Chicago Cubs
        Chicago White Sox
        Cincinnati Reds
        Cleveland Indians
        Detroit Tigers
        Houston Colts
        Houston Astros
        Kansas City Royals
        Los Angeles Dodgers
        Milwaukee Brewers
        Minnesota Twins
        Montreal Expos
        New York Mets
        New York Giants
        New York Yankees
        Phil/KC Athletics (No City Name Used on flannels)
        Philadelphia Phillies
        Pittsburgh Pirates
        San Diego Padres
        San Francisco Giants
        Seattle Pilots
        St. Louis Browns
        St. Louis Cardinals
        Washington Senators

        Teams like the Braves and Athletics didn't use the city name on their flannels, so there is virtually no difference between a Boston Braves flannel and a Milwaukee Braves flannel. So, I figured there is no point in having 1 from Boston and 1 from Milwaukee, etc... However the Dodgers used Brooklyn and then Los Angeles for their road flannels, so I figured I should have one of each.

        Let me know if I've missed any.

        Thanks again,

        Mark

          Pretty close. The Athletics did have a one-year style (1961 road) with Kansas City on the front (navy blue print on grey jersey) as well as a 1968 one-year style in white, yellow and mist green with a Chenille script OAKLAND across the front).
