Mile High has a 1994 Rice gamer up for auction which is does not compare to getty images on a number of details. Other issues are the autograph and the LOA signed by Derrick Thomas.
1: the shirt has the 75th patch on and above the chest seam. This is NOT consistent with other 1994 49er non throwbacks (and throwbacks for that matter). ALL 1994 49er gamers had the 75th patch sewn right below the chest seam. Initially the team had the patches sewn above the chest seam but moved them before the season started to right at or below the seam. I have a # of non throwback gamers with the outline of the old patch above the seam and the patch in its eventual location. Images are attached.
2: the Wilson W on getty is ABOVE the sleeve 80 whereas the auction shirt has the W NEXT TO the sleeve 80.
3. The autograph looks terrible. i am no Jerry Rice autograph expert but this one looks off.
4. The Letter signed by Thomas is very poorly written. Incorrect grammar in a # of places plus the Thomas sig looks like an auto-pen.
I have emailed MHCC and told them of these inconsistencies so lets see what what happens. The shirt already has one bid for 900$.
The images i have posted are of the patch in the correct location followed by Getty images of Rice in the game vs. KC and finally pictures from the Mile High Card Auction.
I have absolutely nothing against MHCC and in fact if this shirt was authentic would have bid on it to win it.
Always buying 49ers gamers and offering up to 500$ finders fee for the right shirt!
