Score Board Schmidt on eBay
Give Howard Wolf credit for spotting this and alerting me. Sold (and priced ) as game used, but bearing Score Board tags (which doesn'tinclude an NIC tag and has the 1990-91 Rawlings label in an alleged 1989 "gamer", a rare hapepnstance with a true team-oredered jersey, and a trait that many 1989 Score Board retail jerseys share.
The seller was contacted by Howard, and, as of this time, has not responded.

Im a Big fan of your experience and eye for this type of stuff..Do you know off hand the ballpark value of a Willie Mays 89 giants jersey signed. Apparently these " Scoreboard items " can be ambiguous to the average gamer collector like me since they bear a close resemblance to the real authentic gamers.

Re: Score Board Schmidt on eBay
Thanks for the kind words.
Even a Score Board signed Mays jersey to me would be a $400-$500 item, due to the high fee these days for getting Mays to sign a jersey.
The Mays Score Board jersey (as well as the one issued for Will Clark) CAN be discerned by the tail strip tagging. Team-issued and game-worn Giants jerseys have a 2-digit year notation (89) on the strip tag. In both cases, the Score Board retail versions have a 4-digit (1989) notation instead of a two-digit version.

Re: Score Board Schmidt on eBay
Thanks for the help Dave, the value isnt too bad I certainly didnt that much for it, but before I determined it was a "Scoreboard jersey", I was told by various collectors that it was worn in Spring Traning of 89 as a coach. I wanted to believe that but sounded too good to be true. ha
thanks again

Re: Score Board Schmidt on eBay
I even had a Schmidt Scoreboard jersey that included the "T" (tapered) tag along with the set and year tag in the collar once. No way was it a gamer, stiff as a board, nice Scoreboard letter but some folks out there will try and say its a gamer. Just like the Seaver Scoreboard jersey that one dealer tried to pass off as a worn spring training instructor jersey. Weak.
