I just bought a 1980 blue White Sox jersey and it appears that there was name plate sewn over the front of the jersey (covering CHICAGO) and on the back over the original name of the player. Can any White Sox fan enlighten me? My guess it was sent down to the minors and altered to fit the needs of the minor league team, then, the minor league alterations were removed, thus restoring the jersey back to it's original form.

Another question; if that's what happened, can this jersey be deemed 100% original and unaltered?
