When you look at Rawlings flag tags from the doubleknit era, the set number on those flag tags is an indicator of when the jersey was ordered, not necessarily the set number in its normal role. Set 1 jerseys are predominant, as that reflects being in the team's original order for the season. Set 2 jerseys are those ordered during the season. The only set 3 flag tagged jerseys I've ever seen in Rawlings are Texas Rangers jerseys markedted individually by A-Roid, Raffy Roids, and Pudge Rodriguez. These jerseys are questionable in many cases as to being actually game used.
