Vintage auctions - Drexler game-used jersey opinions?
Hey guys, i'm new here and need help deciding whether this Drexler jersey is really game-used or not. After reading various threads saying Lou Sampson a one of the worse authenticators for memoribilia i'm now having doubts on whether this is fake or real?.
Can you guys help me - i've attached scans in this thread. The signature is JSA Authenticated.
Description:
Road blue pinstripe Champion Houston Rockets jersey used by Hall of Famer Clyde Drexler during the 1996-97 50th Anniversary NBA season. Clyde was named one of the league's 50 best during the season and the jersey features the gold NBA sewn logo on the upper left chest in proper position. It is appropriately double tagged on outer tail with Champion label containing size 50 and wash instructions flanked by exclusivity label with 1996-97 and body length +3 IDs and pen code residing on inner side seam. Overall the gamer exhibits light consistent game use throughout and earns a final grade of 8. Drexler has also signed the second 2 on the back of the jersey.
Also, what a some trusted auction houses most people use here.What does it also mean by grade 8?
Thanks guys!

I do not see a match for it on Getty from the 96-97 season. In fact, judging from the Getty images, it looks like Clyde wore the same blue pinstripe jersey all season, with the pinstripe running down in between the 2s on the upper right of the front crest. The jersey at Vintage has the pinstripe running through the second 2. I'll keep my general thoughts about Vintage to myself ... let's just say I have never bid and I never will (this Clyde does not make me want to change my mind). In fairness, Getty does not have images of Clyde from all games during the 96-97 season. As such, I am not saying that this jersey is bad.
By the way, BPH/Kim Stigall had what appeared to be an outsanding pair of Clyde's game worn and signed shoes on eBay recently. It may still be on eBay in either current or past auctions. I remember that the starting bid was around $245 and I don't remember seeing a bidder.
Best of luck with your collecting.Always looking for top NBA game worn items of superstar and Hall-of-Fame-caliber players (especially Kobe, LeBron, MJ, Curry and Durant). Also looking for game worn items of all players from special events (e.g., All Star Game, NBA Finals, milestone games, etc.). Please contact me at gameusedequip2@hotmail.com. Thank you.

I don't know if this helps,but Drexler wore size 44 + 4 when he played for the Trailblazers.I was told that the +3 Trailblazers jerseys were pro cut.
