Re: Greg Olson Braves helmet
David,
The numbers are correct, as is everything else about the helmet, down to the blacked out ABC logo (via sticker - which is also unique) beneath the flags. For the most part, those numbers were used from 1987 (first year back to tomahawks) through 1992. Best that I can tell, that numeral style was unique to the Braves. It doesn't take a mastermind to fake helmets most of the time, but getting a '91 Braves gamer correct would take some effort. That said, there actually is a bad "'91" Olson catchers helmet out there somewhere. The only thing they got right however was the flags. Recall seeing that one in the mid-90s.
Jason
