does the scoreboard 1990 Canseco jerseys have the velcro inbetween the 2nd and 3rd button? I have a 1990 Canseco jersey that does have the velcro. it would just seem werid, that scoreboard would but the velcro on for a game issued jersey. thanks Dan

dan and other canseco collectors,

i came across this scoreboard canseco and noticed that in one of the photos, you can clearly see the stitching of the velcro patch in between the buttons. unfortunately the seller doesn't show a photo of the tagging but what you think the odds are that it's a strip tag with "2 90"?

Despite Lampson's endorsement of this jersey as ganme-used, it is actually a 1990 Score Board tagged retail jersey (the "2 90" strip tag is the giveaway). Can I get a photo or link from someone, please?

Dave,
I have a few Rickey Henderson jerseys from 1990. One (home) has a set 1 flag tag, another (road) has a strip tag of, "1 90" and another (WS road)only has a Rawlings label. Most came from a bulk purchase made by Ball Park Heros. If I'm not mistaken, each of these jerseys has passed before your knowledgable eyes. A road Willie Randolph from 1990 also has a strip tag. Are you now saying in your above post that the A's didn't use strip tags in 1990? As always, I appreciate any insight you can offer. Thanks again, hope you're doing well.

That is an awesome find!

Have all those jerseys gone down in price since that advertisment?

The 500 HR jersey with Mantle and Williams is probably still worth what it sold for.

Fraudfinder: Thanks for the link.

Danny: Strip and flag tags were both used throughout the 5-year Rawlings contract on Oakland gamers. The telltale sign is such because there are dozens (if not) more of "2 90" strip tagged 1990 home Cansecos in circulation (as the ad posted shows). Unless it had unimpeachable team or player provenance (which hasn't happened yet on any I've sen), there'd be no way to firmly authenticate this specific player/year jersey unless it had a variance in tagging (which none of the Score Board jerseys do).
