Anyone have any thoughts on this one? I can't find a 1962 jersey to make any comparisons. It's gotta be worth a lot if its real.

I found an Orioles jersey from 62 on the mears website. There is no picture of the jersey but a copy of the Mears Letter. It says that jersey has a Spalding manufacturer tag. The one on ebay has a tag from Wilson.

The jersey has some problems, but Spalding would be the manufacturer for the road jerseys (Wilson did manufacture the home tops in '62)

The strip tag in the neck is incorrect. The flannels from this era that I have seen have the following" No #-2 digit year", ie, No 5-62

The full embroideredyear and dot after the word No is incorect on this particular jersey. Likewise, the embroidery style is not correct.
