Dolphins Game Used Jerseys

Great pics - thanks - gotta be from 1989 then? Does that make sense with "CR" code? Thoughts?

Jim - If the code is correct, how can the jersey be worn a year BEFORE it was made?

I just don't see any remnants of the front patch or the armband.......

Were these patches worn all season?

The JR patches were worn for quite a few years and I am NOT sure what year they stopped wearing the patch. I would like to add that Marino really trimmed the sleeve ends on his jerseys so the possibility exists that a patch was NOT sewn on some of his jerseys.

OK - so I found these two jerseys in past AMI auctions. The first is an Elway which was listed and sold as a 1989 - 1990 jersey - this particular jersey has a "CO" code. ....

The second jersey is a Curt Warner jersey from 1989 with a "BV" code....

Is it possible to that the "C" code was also used in 1989 - as is indicated in the Elway listing??

Jim,

One of the challenges with Marino jerseys is the amount of "game issued" shirts.Even if all the tagging,etc. is correct,it is impossible imo to determine game use/wear especially since he was rarely sacked.Photo match would be very challenging.In addition he would wear 2 jerseys per game.Happy Holidays.

Need help authenticating some late 80's / early 90's Dolphins jerseys. Can someone help or direct me to the best person who can help? Thanks in advance......Jim

I knew a guy who worked for the dolphins and have seen many marino gamers. I can tell you that for most of his career Marino would have the underside of his sleeves cut...each year it would be done a slightly different way by the equipment manager....It appears as though the sleeves are not cut from the photos.....are they? if so can you post a picture?
