can someone fill us in on the history of scoreboard jerseys?
thanks

Pete, do understand, "Scoreboard" jerseys were not originally sold as game used. No one was thinking they were going to later hit the market as game used jersey so often.
Rawlings or whoever made the jerseys made extra jerseys for bulk wholesale orders that were tagged similarly to what the players actually wore and this is why now, years later, so many of these jerseys are being sold as game used when they were just pro-cuts.
The Scoreboard company was a legitimate autograph company that often sold items through mass markets such as Home Shopping Club and Sports Collector's Digest.
I generally have all signatures I buy with Scoreboard certificates verified by PSA/DNA as their certificates could be copied or used with items they may have not originally be sold with.
I'll make this easy for everyone
if you ever have a question on an item, post several pictures of it online, and title it 'Ken can you help' and i will reply if it was an ex score board item or not
this includes autographs
if there is an item on EBAY you are interested in purchasing, and want to be sure it is 'legit' and it is possibly a score board item I will let you know if it is legit or not.
i think 99%+ of the time I will remember an item and know from looking at it.
just realize there are times of the year i might not respond in my normal immediate time frame

Ken
The model bat in the photo is not attributed to HoJo (Howard Johnson), but instead is attributed to FLOJO (Florence Griffith Joyner)!!
