1977 Carlton Fisk possible surprise gamer?

[PAC]

The jersey is DEF not grey.....I showed it to several Red Sox collectors who have jerseys from the same era (some even from 1977) and there HOME white jerseys are heavily faded as well...they also had a few GREY Pawtucket jerseys in there collection and rest assured the FISK is not close to their GREY jerseys...in any case I will prob send to MEARS although I feel confident it is good

when YOU capitalize random WORDS it doesn't HELP get your point ACROSS it just makes your post really ANNOYING to READ

Just passing along one man's opinion as he did have it in hand. I would welcome his post on here but he has yet to do so.

It will be interesting to see if Lon Lewis responds and what his response will be.

Everything that can be analyzed in the photos seems to be supportive of its authenticity. I've seen a number of Red Sox home gamers from the mid-1970s that were recycled in the minors, and carry that light grey fading from the extra wear and washings.

I agree with Dave you can only go on what you can see from the photos. Also you can only go on the info the person tells you.

I had a fellow forum member email me and he actually examined the jersey in person and said it is road gray and 100% a paw Sox Jersey.

So there y ou have it. Looks can be deceiving I suppose. I still like the jersey regardless.

Did the PawSox wear Wilson jerseys during the 70s? I just saw an ebay auction for a 80s PawSox jersey. Curious to know if PawSox changed from McAuliffe to Wilson.

Back then, the suppliers for the Pawsox seemed to usually be the same as the suppliers for Boston. That said, while not an ironclad belief, I would lean towards the idea of the Pawtucket team switching to Wilson when the Major League Red Sox did (1979).
