Photo match help

Re: Photo match help

A few differences between this glove and my glove. First you can see the difference in the script "Griffey". My glove has the older style script. Next and most importantly the glove in the display case is most likely an UDA store version. I say this because if you notice, the "trap-eeze logo is upside down on the web of the glove. This is one of the most common signs of a UDA glove. Another forum member, Steve B. sent me a great article on Griffey gloves including the version that was distributed by UDA as a game model.. Thanks for the input, and follow up.

Re: Photo match help

thome25, I`d have to agree with you on the beat down. I`m all for people having an Opinion, even if they disagree. Personally, I know there are EXPERTS on here at Photomatching etc...I`ve asked for help several times, including recently & have normally got NOTHING. This is after asking POLITELY & DOING MY HOMEWORK...ie trying to help myself before I ask. Do I EXPECT IT??? no, that`s not what I`m saying. What I will say is there`s clicks on here that simpy help one another & don`t seem to wanna step out of the safety of their little Click & help someone. If you find this offensive, maybe your one of them??? I see it happen to newer guys all the time, including smartazz answers.

The Spirit of this Forum is about helping one another. I feel I`ve helped when I can & would like to see others get the help they need. Most of us will disagree at times, have strong opinions, fine. When you make it personal, attach name Calling, THEN IT`S GETTING UGLY. Stand up to some of the guys on here, your done!!! I really don`t care, Intimidation is NOT part of my world, in Person, or Online. I don`t do it, & I don`t Tolerate it.

Re: Photo match help

Well said sean. My point is some people are much quicker on the beat down button than they are on the assist button. There are a lot of good folks on this site that will jump at the chance of helping somebody. I wish there were more of them out there... A friend of mine was beat senseless on this site over a transaction that did not go well. People were quick to judge and advise but those same people go into hiding when it comes to asissting somebody.

Re: Photo match help

So it's easier to jump in on a beat down thread than it is a photomatch thread. Of course it is.. it's simple logic, one requires a couple of minutes to type up a response while the other can take numerous hours of digging through photos.. hmmm, which one will happen first? I've never posted in a "beat down" thread but I can guess photomatching would happen last.

I do think you jumped the gun on expecting folks to research photos for free and expecting a response in 24hrs. Sometimes it happens that quick but in this case, Griffey gloves are tough to match. It's not always an easy thing to do, give it time.

On that note I've been slowly checking through some Griffey cards/magazines/books. Still have to go through numerous photos from the Pacific Trading Cards media archives I picked up years ago, most pictures show him batting though.

Re: Photo match help

Jeremy, I wasn't so much looking for somebody to provide a picture as I was asking for assistance with the one I provided. I actually did my homework prior to the post but do not have the photo software to enhance the photo. With that said, any help you can provide would be great. Regarding the jumping the gun comment, if you would like to have the discussion off line I will tell you specifically what I am talking about on the beat down issue. It was not me but it sure got a lot of press. I assure you nobody waited 24 hours to jump in on that particular issue..
