A Tale of Two Fisks
As I was surfing around I stumbled across something. Two 1991, home, Set 1, Carlton Fisk jerseys. Both different jerseys. One sold by Lelands a long time ago and the other in Mastro's current auction. See images below.
I'm not implying that anything in the least is wrong with either of these jerseys. I'm simply posting to a) show 2 1991, home, set 1's and b) to let any potential buyer for the Mastro Fisk know that there is another Set 1 home out there.
Rudy.

Nate I understand that!!! I meant the actualjersey it self what is the difference? I am sure that is not why KingJammy pointed this item out.

Re: A Tale of Two Fisks
Line up where the "Sox" and the "72" is in relation to the buttons and that in itself is a huge difference in placement. Which one is correct remains to be seen...

Re: A Tale of Two Fisks
Could there be,as discussed before,more than one of the same issued? The pinstripe matching to where they touch the patches and numbers are different for both, does anyone have a matching year to compare? Is it too technical in that the teams pinstripe pattern would be the same to distinguish against an odd jersey?

Re: A Tale of Two Fisks
Well I can definitely say swoboda that a lot of the time there are more then 1 jersey issued to a player. It really depends on the owners of the team if there willing to flip the bill for extra jerseys or if the player is important enough to the owner to request an extra 2 jerseys or such. I actually recently learned this about the Yankees. That up untill the mid 90's they would recyclye over and over the same jerseys to the players but then steinbrenner decided to let them have usually between 2 - 4 jerseys each. He would let them keep 1 and the club would keep the rest. For players who would get 4 jerseys would be players such as Jeter or ARod. For obvious reasons, you don't want to upset your Marquis players!!!!
