Re: Show Me Your Chicago Bears Stuff.......

Keep in mind, I'm only refering to the navy/home version.

The white/away version........there are so few of them out there, the sky is the limit, pricewise. If I had one for sale I would start the bidding at $500.

Here's a couple photos, let me know your thoughts, manufactured after Payton retired according to the tag, correct?

Re: Show Me Your Chicago Bears Stuff.......

Correct. That would be January of 1988.

Manufacture date and silk tag aside, that's a nice nameplate with medium spacing and the correct thickness for the outline.

If I were putting that one up for sale I'd like to see it fetch around $300.

That's a really nice piece, despite having been issued after retirement. If you could land that for $300, I'd say go for it.

Aarrgghh, it was on fleabay and I missed out on it because of a meeting. Someone else bought it for $199

Re: Show Me Your Chicago Bears Stuff.......

Somebody got a helluva deal.

Re: Show Me Your Chicago Bears Stuff.......

Yep, and not for the first time, although it doesn't happen that often. I watched a c.90ish like that one go for like $160 earlier this year, so there are deals to be had, they just don't turn up that often. Now a *white* '86 Payton in 44-46-48 to match my Samurai Mike... now that would be sick

Nevermind, my "ebay radar" woke me up.

I'll stop short of saying this is bogus, but..........

The only Bears jerseys I've ever seen with the tag sewn on the back were all retail authentics and all post-1987, (like this one). The spacing on the nameplate lettering is indicative of a retail authentic as well.

And don't even get me started on the "Payton game worn jersey with little to no wear" issue again.

Hahahaha, Glad I'm old enough to fully remember watching him play... yeah, there's no way that happened the way he hammered people. Sent you email with the fabric details on that Morrissey by the way...

Re: Show Me Your Chicago Bears Stuff.......

Let's get this back on track, recently in receipt of an Urlacher jersey, its a supposed pre season game used. The date of the game is written on the tag, but not much wear, can't really photo match. Any help or opinions would be appreciated, no time for my own photos yet. I figured at the least, even if I can't prove game use, at the least, its game issued.

I'm still fuming that I failed to bid on that nice Payton retail authentic that I posted about recently !! Go Bears !!

Re: Show Me Your Chicago Bears Stuff.......

It's a little odd there's no sign of +4 length or elastic hem and such (it's not just the photo, right?) but even if it wasn't, at least you got a nice bat-wing gamer cut and sig there!

You are correct, no elastic hem, and no +4, but I've seen some gamers that don't have the hem or the +4. Am I correct in that evaluation?

Plus, you're correct again, even if there isn't game use, I got the almost worn, hanging out in the locker, please wear me jersey and auto to boot.
