Saints dureen on EBAY

Being a Saints fan I would love a dureen Saints, especially one of Abramowicz obviously, but I do not know much about football gamers. I have been looking at lots of old photos lately and I have my doubts about this auction. Since I have not been able to get any questions answered by B&E I decided to post here my concerns.

1. I have not been able to find any pics of the Saints wearing this style of numbering during Abramowicz's playing days.

2. I have found evidence of them using this style of numbering in the mid 70's. James Kearney also wore #46 in 1976.

3. I have not found any evidence of the Saints using this style of skinny lettering on the NOB.

4. B&E has not responded to my questions as to the amount (if any) of wear on the jersey.

5. Since the hem has been cut and any tags are now gone I cannot use that evidence to help date the shirt.

I know people on here have had positive experiences with B&E but they simply do not respond to questions through EBAY so I was wondering if any football experts on the forum can lend a hand as this would be one of my ultimate jerseys if really an Abramowicz from the late 60's.

Thanks

I sent an email to B&E- they have normally answered questions at
collect@bestweb.net or becollectibles.inc@verizon.net

First of all, It cannot be a late 60s jersey. The NFL went to names on the backs in 1970. So, start from 1970 on to see if you can locate any photos.

Judging by what it went for it probably was not what it was advertised as. B&E never responded either.
