    Photomatch Help

    I bought an A.J Batting Helmet this weekend at Soxfest and the right front brim is bent and a smash mark on the back as well. I will take better pictures tonight. My camera died last night when Igot home so better pictures tomorrow.

    Should be easy to make out in a picture. Right front brim has white line highlightingh the plastic is stretched and angled down a little.

    Some of you find these pretty easy. So I thought I would ask for help.

    Thanks,

    Glen

    Glen,

    Could these marks be the end result of Michael Barrett's right hook? Just kidding. Post the pics...would love to see you photo match the helmet!

    Rob,

    Believe me that is the first picture I looked at. Would love to have a photomatched item from that exchange. I will take pictures of the helmets tonight.

    Thanks,

    Glen

    Glen,
    Nice helmet! A.J. apparently alternated between Coolflo and traditional style last year, although it looks like he favored Coolflo, i.e., yours. The attached photos were taken a few days apart in late July. The brim appears bent in the frontal shot but I'd hesitate in calling it a match until I saw a better closeup. Images from later in the season appear to show A.J. wearing a helmet without the bent brim, so it's possible he switched sometime in August.
    Good luck,
    Jason

    Jason thanks so much for the help. I would say that it looks like a pretty close match. I also would like to see something better but gettyimages is empty for him during that time frame. Any other places I could look? For Associated Press you have to be a member, correct? I can't seem to browse photos.

    Thanks again for the help,

    Glen
