Jason Varitek 2006 photo matched Rawlings bat
I'm a huge Boston Red Sox fan and I just got this Varitek bat in, I was looking at some images I saved from early 2006 and was suprised when I found a photo match of Jason Varitek swinging a Rawlings bat used to hit a RBI double vs the Orioles on 4-8-06
The large ballmark on the barrel and the pine tar application to the handle and wood grain match perfectly.

Re: Post Your Photo-matched Game-used Items Here
I know both of these are Minor League but cool none the less. Possibly the only stitched name Papelbon glove he ever used. I've never seen another but I could be wrong.

Re: Post Your Photo-matched Game-used Items Here
Every time I pop in my copy of Play Ball! with Mickey Mantle featuring Gary Carter and Tom Seaver, I can photo match Gary Carter's full uniform in the video to the one sitting in my Carter collection.
Do video match count in this thread

Re: Post Your Photo-matched Game-used Items Here
Interesting finds here.
I think it would be more helpful to me, and possibly others if you could point out details on the item and the photo which show that it's an exact match.
Remember- we're using the true definition of photo match, not style match, so show off the details- bat marks, dirt marks, helmet marks etc.

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 have a Tom Kozelko 1973-74 bullets home jersey I feel is a true photo match. Note the second 2 on the front of the jersey has a slight gap in between the end of the last red stripe and the beginning of the white body of the jersey. The second photo shows the same small gap.

Re: Post Your Photo-matched Game-used Items Here 1968 Braves need help
1968 Braves bat boy jersey and photo
Hi Group
This is an interesting find. Alittle while ago I bought a picture of Hank Aaron with the bat boy (this is an unpublished picture). Recently the same person who sold me the picture decided to sell the jersey that was in the drawer next to the picture. As you can see the jersey in the picture was orginally sewn together due to the boy being so small for it. The jersey I have is a proper button up one with the same lettering and style as the pictured one. (Noticed the letters were moved over on the one in the picture to compensate for this. This jersey has no compensation for this. I believe that this jersey I have was used perhaps in later in the season or the following year? Would love to talk to the bat bay if anyone knows how to get ahold of him. No luck with the people I bought the picture and jersey from. (The chest of drawers came out of Atlanta, Georgia) The whole chest of drawers was filled with baseball memoriblia. Balls mainly. I did pick up a nice baseball signed by the 1971 Braves team signed baseball that also has members of the gas house gang on it? (Terry Moore, Frank Frisch, and Dizzy Dean) I guess that is another story.
Thanks
Jason
