Re: Problem With Meigray
According to the book "Now Batting, Number . . ." page 244, Darwin Cubillan wore 45. 57 is not listed as being worn by him.Comment

Re: Problem With Meigray
Hi MuseOven,
We did check, as you can see, that No. 45 was Cubillan's number, according to the Texas Rangers. I am glad that RC Walker found another book to corroborate our research.
Please let me know if you are satisfied with this info, as I want you to be comfortable with the jersey.
Regards,
Barry Meisel, MeiGrayComment

Hi Matthew,
Thanks for the kind words.
I do not often post about items from my personal collection, but as someone who grew up a Jets fan and as a kid idolized Namath and the AFL Jets, I've enjoyed seeing your collection.
One of my favorite items in my collection is my 1968 Johnny Sample sample photo-matched (to pictures in Sample's book) and video-matched to Super Bowl III.
If you're ever looking to move any vintage Jets items, '60s and '70s, I'd love to get a shot.
Regards,

However, I would like to know when you crossed over to the dark side? You mention you grew up a Jets fan but in another thread you mention being an avid New Jersey Giants fan? It's never too late to come back from the misguided souls and support the green and white. With a solid draft to go with the FA signings there might not be much room on the bandwagon come November or so.

Re: Problem With Meigray
Matthew,
I know this against natural law for New Yorkers, but I do root for both Giants and Jets (I do root only for the Mets and Rangers). I will admit that I turned over in 1997, after covering the Giants for the New York Daily News (I am a former sportswriter and found that the organization was full of sincere, genuine people). When I left the News, I began rooting for them.
I still love Gang Green, and pray for a Giants-Jets Super Bowl. What would I do? I have no idea. But please let me have such a problem.
All the best,
BarryComment

Re: Problem With Meigray
I will add that I have tremendously enjoyed my conversations with Barry. I finally had the chance to meet him in person at the Super Bowl (GUU was set up at the NFL Experience and Barry was kind enough to come by and say hello) and I have also spoken with him on the phone on numerous occasions. I believe he genuinely has a similar passion as many here who hope to address the many problems in the hobby and I hope to have many more conversations with him in the future.
Sincerely,

Re: Problem With Meigray
After reading these posts, I would just like to say that Barry Meisel and all of his staff are the best. I have made a number of purchases from him right when he first started Meigray and he is simply the best. When it comes to game worn equiptment, Meigray does their homework. You will never be disappointed. Go Rangers! GeorgeComment
