Updated Wilson Tagging Primer
Having come across some new information, I've updated my Wilson tagging primer for MLB jerseys tagged in the tail. This primer does not apply to jerseys tagged in the neck.
If anyone has any further insight, please let me know.
Rudy.

Re: Updated Wilson Tagging Primer
Recently purchased a Reds jacket mfg by WIlson. Off the Wilson tag is a flag tag with the letters DX. To what year would that trace the jacket back to?
Thanks,
Howard

Re: Updated Wilson Tagging Primer
Thank you, Rudy. Do you know when they started using paper tags? Many thanks for your help.

Re: Updated Wilson Tagging Primer
Thanks for the update, Rudy. Hi, I was wondering if you have a "key" to identifying the flag tags. I have several NFL jerseys with similar flag tags containing various 2-letter codes and have no idea what they mean. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks,
Rick

Re: Updated Wilson Tagging Primer
for info re: the 2 letter code on wilson tags, see:
http://www.gameuseduniverse.com/vb_f...ead.php?t=4831
the first letter is the year, the second the month.
years:
------
1988 = A
1989 = B
1990 = C
1991 = D
1992 = E
1993 = F
1994 = G
1995 = H
1996 = I
1997 = J
1998 = K
lon and i have been speaking about the second letter/months. from all indications, there are different systems/cycles/letters for football jerseys and baseball jerseys. previous interpretations may have been based on football jerseys and may not apply accurately to baseball jerseys. i don't want to steal his thunder or post his thoughts/research so i'll leave it up to him to shed some more light on the second letter/months.

Re: Updated Wilson Tagging Primer
In reference to the Wilson Tagging Primer code, are these codes used only on jerseys shipped to the teams or are they also found on retail jerseys?
Thanx,
Jim

Re: Updated Wilson Tagging Primer
jim, if by "retail" you mean jerseys sold in team shops, dugout stores, ect. the answer would be yes. most wilson products such as jerseys, pants, jackets and hats have some form of this "code" this includes mlbb, nfl, minor league and non pro. however, the presence or lack of these tags in some form should not be the sole determining factor in whether an mlbb or nfl jersey is game used/ authentic. these "codes" are simply a reference point as to the date of mfr of the particular item.

Re: Updated Wilson Tagging Primer
Absolutely. I have Wilson NFL gamers that have no flag tag at all but are definitely legit.
