Re: Post Your Photo-matched Game-used Items Here
I never heard of the hanger theory. Dan always had some cuts/scratches around his neck area from shaving and a photo I have here somewhere shows that fairly well. I always assumed that it was blood stains due to the pattern. I'll have to shoot a full photo of the jersey with my digital. That scan above was done by laying it on the flatbed scanner.

Re: Post Your Photo-matched Game-used Items Here
Some amazing matches in here. Great work. Anybody got anything new. I hope to post one in here pretty soon.

Re: Post Your Photo-matched Game-used Items Here
This 80-81 Randy Carlyle Pens is photomatched to his 81 Topps card....the match is the stickmark on the crest.

Re: Post Your Photo-matched Game-used Items Here
Here is my 1995 Albany Polecats Vladimir Guerrero game used jersey. I have three different baseball cards showing him wearing this exact jersey. The buttons and numbers match up exactly and it also has a letter from the late Dick Dobbins, who was the authority on minor league jerseys.

Re: Post Your Photo-matched Game-used Items Here
Is it just me or does there seem to be a lot more space from the polecat patch to the end of the sleeve in the picture than on your jersey?
-
Re: Post Your Photo-matched Game-used Items Here
No, because on the card you can't see the bottom of the Polecat patch. The glare on the bottom of the sleeve does not show the entire patch.
-
Re: Post Your Photo-matched Game-used Items Here
If you look real close on this first pic you can see the rest of the patch and how close it comes to the border on the sleeve. It's hard to see in the other photo.

Re: Post Your Photo-matched Game-used Items Here
Here is another card showing this jersey.

Re: Post Your Photo-matched Game-used Items Here
I see what you mean about the glare now...Nice jersey

Re: Post Your Photo-matched Game-used Items Here
That old Penguins Randy Carlyle is very sweet, does anyone have a photo of that card from 81. Was that the year they changed colors mid season (from blue and white to black and gold)? This is not my jersey, but i've seen this example of how Meigray can blow up a portion of a getty image to show exact details better on a photo match.

ive had these for about 9 years. when i got these signed, Ray said that he had only wore this style for a portion of the season and only wore this style once. pretty easy match.
these are some of my most cherished items.
ive never seen another pair of Lankford shoes available since.
-
Re: Post Your Photo-matched Game-used Items Here
Those Lankford shoes are sweet although I would classify those as more of a style match as opposed to a photo match (or am I missing something?).
-
Re: Post Your Photo-matched Game-used Items Here
from what i gathered in talking to Ray, these (this pair) were only worn for a portion of the season and he decided to switch to a different style. no multiple pairs as this was said to be the only time he wore them
. in my research before actually talking to Lankford, i came to the conclusion that these were worn early in the 95' season.

Re: Post Your Photo-matched Game-used Items Here
here is a photo match. pedro is a friend of mine. i know this is a match because he was only issued one set each of home and road and he only played less than half of the season due to an injury. i aquired the jersey at the end of the 2005 season.:D

Re: Post Your Photo-matched Game-used Items Here
Not sure if its an exact photo match but definately an interesting style match. Heres a Hideki Matsui bat used by Jorge Posada. Apparently in 2005 Posada was in a pretty bad slump and decided to use Hideki Matsui's bat for a short period of time when batting left handed.

Re: Post Your Photo-matched Game-used Items Here
There are alot of great items posted with rock solid provenance, so I know i am going to catch heat for this. Something is not considered a phtomatch UNLESS there is a distinguishing chracteristic on the piece ( dirts, sweat stain, fabric pull, repair, ball mark etc..) that you can match to a photo. It doesn't matter if a player handed you the jersey , bat, cleat, glove etc...To be a photo match, you must "match (hence the word) it (that exact item)" to a photo..Some have done it in this thread and some have not..that is not to take away from any of the items as they are all nice pieces. That's what makes a having a photo match so special, it's difficult and rare to do. A photo match leaves practically no doubt and to many actually holds more weight than a team or player LOA...

Re: Post Your Photo-matched Game-used Items Here
Thats the point I was trying to make the with the Lankford shoes (you did a better job explaining it).

Re: Post Your Photo-matched Game-used Items Here
Here's one of my favorite items in my collection, a 2005 Home Run derby bat used by David Ortiz. Ortiz hit a total of 20 Home runs with this LVS B9 bat. You can see the pine tar stains from his gloves just above the B9 logo, also there's a photo of Ortiz sitting in the dugout and the wood grain and pine tar match up perfect. The right barrel area of this bat is just pounded with deep ball seam marks.

Re: Post Your Photo-matched Game-used Items Here
Great job. There are some awesome matches on here. I have a question. I have a '95 World Series jersey from Jim Thome. I have been looking for pics. But have turn up nothing from that year. Any ideas where I may look ??Thanks,Roger:)

Re: Post Your Photo-matched Game-used Items Here
With the info on $5 photo getty seller, let's see some more matches. My favorite thread in this forum is this one. So I will bring it back up with a photo-matched hockey helmet. The pictures I took really don't do the photo itself justice. The glare kinda distorts some of the marks. I can't photo a photo very well. But in person with the photo it really shows some perfect matches. I did a close up on the CCM marking, easy to see the scrach in the logo and some scuffing, but it is much better than the picture I took.....

I bought the helmet from Meigray during there summer sale. There is some specs of dust from photo holder that show up here and some other tiny scratches in the white that match but don't show up in my picture. Does it look like a match to you guys?
-
Re: Post Your Photo-matched Game-used Items Here
Indyred, thanks for sharing those. Looks like a nice match to me, given the mark through the middle "C" and the varying degrees of thinkness of the "C" stickers.
-
Re: Post Your Photo-matched Game-used Items Here
Indyred,
I think you did a great job on the photomatch. The bigger gouge above the cm matches perfectly. As you told me when I made my first match, it is as good as getting the piece itself! Did you match the helmet before you ordered the picture or did it come and then you matched it up? I would assume helmets would be easier to match if you have the year correct since players only use one in a season unless it gets cracked. Thanks for sharing and congrats!

Here is one that is also a pretty nice match, I think for sure that hockey jerseys are easiest to match

Re: Post Your Photo-matched Game-used Items Here
PK,
Nice match. Also, interesting to see that the MeiGray patches are placed on the jerseys prior to the players using them. This may not be a great observation for the MeiGray hockey collectors' standards, but I found it interesting because this was not the case with the first batch of MeiGray Texas Rangers baseball jerseys (the MeiGray tags were sewn on after the jerseys were sent to MeiGray from the Rangers; after 2001, they went to team serial coding, so there were no MeiGray tags).
Thanks for posting - nice jersey.

Re: Post Your Photo-matched Game-used Items Here
Reid, this paticular Meigray patch is a sponsor patch and not an inventory patch. On NHL jerseys the patch is sewn on the inside hem and has an inventory number right on the patch. I believe these are sewn on before players wear them. Maybe with the Rangers a deal was worked after they started wearing them and were unable to be put in before? I am not 100% sure, but I would bet they are now put on before jerseys are worn by the Rangers.

Yes, but I'm sure it will be impossible. This Alex Rodriguez HR #15 Game Used bat was used on 25 June 1996. To find a picture for this specific game on this specific date mostly likely is impossible. However, documentation is solid, including the box score for that game, and a letter from Rawlings stating Arod order 12 bats of this model in 1996.
