A photo match for your collection
If you're a photo-match collector this one looks promising. The Chris Sabo helmet up for sale on eBay right now looks like the one he's wearing on the Getty photo below. You'd have to see the helmet in person to get a better angle, but the three dots on the brim look like the same dots in the photo. Disclosure: I have no idea who the seller is. It just looks like it would make a decent addition to a photo-match collection.

Re: A photo match for your collection
Here's another good item for a photomatch collector. It's an 06 Jeff Francis jersey I saw on eBay which is photomatched to a game on August 19,2006

Re: A photo match for your collection
this is not a photo-match on the 1st jersey there's part of the "O" that laps over to the left side of jersey and on the second jersey it's not there

Re: A photo match for your collection
The line going thru the second letter O is the only difference I can see, it may be because the jersey is bunched up and twisted in the getty action photo.

Re: A photo match for your collection
I have read several posts in the forum on photomatching and I believe that one of the more difficult things to do is be objective. It is important to distinguish what you want to see/what you think you should see from what is actually there. Too many times I have read about a "photomatch" with a few similarities but nothing clearly and unquestionalbly the same(nevermind other traits that may be different but are not mentioned). In my opinion, unless the match is clear as day, it shouldn't be considered a photomatch. This is why the forum is a valuable tool because people w/o an stake in an item can put in their 2 cents regading a possible match.

Re: A photo match for your collection
I agree, a photo match to me is being able to see a mark or blemishon a jersey and also being able to see that same mark or blemish on a game photo.
You could never sell me that a jersey is photomatched because the pinstripes line up.
