Re: Thoughts on 1985 Cal Ripken Jersey on Ebay
I haven't really looked at the jersey in detail yet and am not saying this is the case with this particular jersey but I can tell you that there have been quite a few 1985 home Ripken jersey's (and Murray too for that matter) in the hobby that are salesman samples. Off the top of my head I can think of 8 or 9 people (and add the 8 or 9 that have been offered to me over the past 20 years) who have these in their colelctions and I can tell you that Cal didn't wear that many tops that year...

Re: Thoughts on 1985 Cal Ripken Jersey on Ebay
Is it just me, or does the Rawlings tag look like it has a different stitch pattern on the right side than on the top, left and bottom? Those flag tags look a little off, although I can't put into words just how I come to that conclusion.

I think this is the same seller that has the "Mitchell '89 Giants" jersey. Among other things amiss, the back 8 on the "Ripken" jersey is on upside down. ( the smaller inside opening on the 8 goes on the top)

Re: Thoughts on 1985 Cal Ripken Jersey on Ebay
I have a 1985 Cal Ripken Uniform. The jersey has a 3 inches extra length patch that is sewn all the way around as opposed to this one which looks like a flag tag.
I obtained mine from Barry Wolfsheimer.
