I am always looking to get better at this hobby. Tell me what you all think of this jersey. I am not sure how many store type jerseys were sold back in the 70's but here is what I am seeing. The KANSAS CITY seems to arch more than many of the pictures I've seen. But, the WASHINGTON on the back does go onto the back arm as I have also seen in at least one picture. However, the font, primarily the W isn't the same between the auction and Donruss card I attached. Maybe the Royals changed the font? Also, the white on the sleeve seems to be bigger in the picture. Again, this could be explained by a change in style. There just aren't that many pictures of UL out there. Also, there is an absence of a year tag as I have seen on several of the 70's jerseys.
I have attached a picure of the back font and also a picture of the front. Both pictures also show the larger white area of the sleeve band. So maybe the sleeve changed with the font and this could be a 70's jersey whereas the picture I see with the different font on the back, the larger white sleeve band and higher arching KANSAS CITY could be a newer style.
What do you all think??
PS If I am rambling it's because I am in the middle of a double overnight shift.
