I know this one may sound a little crazy, but I think I photomatched my Daryle Ward game worn hat. He only played one month for the Braves, and I already have his photomatched BP jersey from 9/19/06, but I think that the hat I also have worn by him is the same in the picture of him wearing the jersey which I already own. There is a loose stitch on the lower part of the "A" (which I have circled in the photo).

Kyle, you're getting to be a real pro at this. You should start your own business. You could charge people to photomatch their stuff. Forum members could send you some photos and if you get a match, they could paypal you whatever your price is before you send them the photo showing the match. It would be a cool way to fund buying some more stuff. Just a thought.

I have photo matched my 1987 Mattingly jersey to him wearing it at the 1987 All-Star game. I was only able to find 1 picture but the NY and pinstripes match up perfectly! Will post pics as soon as I can. Can anyone suggest were I might be able to find other 1987 All Star game Donnie pics, already checked Getty.

Thanks
George

george,

try getting the 1987 AS Game on dvd. i think kyle once posted the website of a guy who was selling 20+ years of mlb all star games on dvd.

here's a few: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...m=170116572603

no 1987 though. maybe the seller has '87 game though? keep your eyes peeled on ebay though. every now and then old games on dvd or vhs pop up.

see if you can match up the rear numbers. i've seen the NYY logo placed in the same spot on a few different yankees jerseys.

Re: Post Your Photo-matched Game-used Items Here

I made another photomatch! This one looks awesome and I'm still shocked that I photomatched a Braves BP jersey again. It's a Marcus Giles game worn 2006 BP jersey and I photomatched it to April 5th. There is one long loose stitch on the "A" in "BRAVES" and it matches perfectly!

Kyle, I'm telling you, you should start charging people to photomatch their stuff. You're the photomatching stud. Another nice match!

I have only noticed a handful of hockey collectors here, but I'm enjoying seeing gamers from other sports.

I recently Photo matched my Alexander Frolov rookie Kings jersey. I obtained a high resolution image from a game during his rookie season and was able to positively identify several characteristics in the photo matching my jersey. The most noticeable are some team repairs on the arm of the jersey. When I was putting together the image below, I accidentally also identified the stick he is using as a stick in my possession as well! Needless to say I was very pleased with my discovery

Re: Post Your Photo-matched Game-used Items Here

I now have TWO photomatches for my Felipe Lopez game worn 2006 Reds helmet, as I have found yet another photomatch today. The picture is from May 10,2006, when Lopez had 4 stolen bases, 3 runs, & 2 walks. There is a white mark next to the air hole which matches.....





Here's the other photomatch but from an unknown date:

Re: Post Your Photo-matched Game-used Items Here

Could someone please explain to me how some of these items are photo-matched?

Batting gloves and cleats? I do not believe these are photo-matched but style matched, anyone else agree with me?

Unless there is a distinctive characteristic that stands out, you can not photo match an item. Pinstripes on a jersey, stains, rips, tears, hit marks, etc...

I feel many people just want there item to be the one in the photo, so they start seeing things. Again, a photo-match must have a characteristic such as listed above. Just because an item was signed by the player that he used it on a special day, the photo-matching is great, but unless there is something amazing such as the two jerseys with pin-stripe locational matches (that Yankees jersey is so cool) it is very hard to call an item photo-matched.

I couldn't agree with you more. It's been stated several times in this thread yet people continue to showcase "style matched" items. So be it...

Mike Cameron game used Reds helmet
(notice the long white streak on the back side of the helmet present in the photo as well)
