Well after looking, it looks like he only wore this jersey for three games( Sept 2nd, 3rd and 4th).

yanks12025,

are you saying you photo matched this jersey to games a month after it was hologram-ed (July 31,1911)? that would make an interesting example.

Joel,

Yes it looks like it matches to those three games. Curious why he only wore it 3 games. Cause looking through his photos, he usually wears the same one for a couple series.

Maybe Steiner asked for more that they could sell from the 3000 hit season for a premium?

I bought a game used jersey from Steiner where it was unwashed
and can be photomatched to a date after what the MLB hologram states.
This was explained to me as an error by MLB and my Steiner rep at the time
assured me it was getting taken care of but he left the company and
never made good on it. It's not a big deal to me but I had a hard time
explaining to my customer since that makes everything that is MLB
authenticated questionable unless there is a definitive photomatch.
Hope this helps.

Just to add, if I recall the date on the MLB hologram was like 4/6
and the actual date it was used was 4/16 so it was a clerical error
when putting the date into the system. All the jerseys from that session
were the same and Steiner initially assured me by showing me several
other easily photomatched jerseys.
The jersey was authentic so it wasn't a big issue but its hard to
explain to an novice collector.
