There is also a Strawberry 1996 team signed game issued jersey for sale, but these cleats have your name written all over them.

Re: Lot for Suave1477
TRSENT I appreciate bringing this to my attention as I will defintely keep an eye on these. I particulary do like them.
Interestingly enough I took a look at that Jersey you mentioned. I find a few oddities with it. Lets start off with the obvious the nameplate on the back is absolutely horrible, it is without a doubt not original not sure who came up with the idea to sew on a WHITE nameplate on a GRAY Jersey. It is being sold as game issued not game used - Take a look at the patch especially looks like it was beaten up and and sewn on poorly by someone outside of the manufacturer, this Jersey overall should be pretty crisp and clean if it is Issued.
I am not an mid 80's Jersey expert and maybe im wrong but isn't there supposed to be A strip tag on this?
I got a feeling this is a Jersey from some other point and time that someone tried to make look up like an 86 season jersey for the autographs.
Not to mention Straw fans, Mets Fans, would be going nuts over a Jersey like this if it was the real deal, the fact bidding is only at $100 is a red flag to me, even at this early in the auction there would of been some serious bids put in on it.

Re: Lot for Suave1477
I would call out TNT on this one and if he can provide some opinion on it, as I know he is the 80's Mets Jersey expert?

Re: Lot for Suave1477
I am a little puzzled by it too. The nameplate is obviously not the original, and I would question why the nameplate was even restored in the first place. I have never come across another '86 jersey with a restored nameplate. Apart from that,the Goodman tag is fine (no strip tag necessary) and the wear throughout appears to be HEAVY (letters and numbers on front and back, patch and the side stripes) -- so I have no idea where the jersey could have been deemed to be "game issued" -- unless it was sold to the original owner as game issued, and they proceeded to wear it heavily??? Personally, I would treat as a team autographed jersey... and the current price is great for that matter.

Re: Lot for Suave1477
I agree with everything you say TNT except for one thing as you mentioned the price. The price would be great on a clean looking Jersey. For example when the use a new retail Jersey for autograph signings.
But as you mentioned shows some type of wear if not just out right beat up Jersey with a horribly altered nameplate. So I dont think honestly dont think its worth anything more than the $100 bid thats on it

Bad Darryl Strawberry jersey in American Memorabilia Auction
Just a warning, this jersey is now being sold as "Game Used" in the current American Memorabilia auction. The nameplate is terrible. It should look like the one I have pictured.

Re: Lot for Suave1477
Wow you got to love this.

Re: Lot for Suave1477
Oh My God I saw the Game Issued part at a glance. I didn't realize it said NOT GAME ISSUED - This is even worse so mears was completely being out right saying this was not a jersey intended for game use and now AM is saying it is Game Used??
You got to love this at the end of AM listing " is directly sourced through an ex-agent. "
Um no AM you sourced it through Mears lol
