This strip tag looks bogus to me. Does not match exemplars I have seen. Any thoughts?

I'm with you. I believe the year should be in the ID. Also there were 2 legit embroidery fonts on '85 Mets gamers. This tries very hard to imitate one of them, but something about it looks off.

I was wrong...I checked my files, and the sequence of uniform #, size, set is correct, yet it still doesn't look quite right.

I think that the 4 in the Strawberry jersey is the key. That font is totally different than the other 3 jerseys. Something's amiss for sure.Comment

The numbers on the back of the jersey look very off as well.Comment

Wow, this is a complete train wreck. There is not much on this jersey that looks accurate. How in God's name could it have passed authentication?
The back numbers are horrific. The only time I have seen back numbers on a Strawberry so malformed and fat have been on Chinese knock-offs.
The front numbers are wrong too. Tell me when you have ever seen such a fat front #1 on a Mets jersey?
The font on back is dead wrong -- it's close to the thicker font that the Mets used for short names (less than 7 letters long). The name Strawberry should be MUCH thinner and much less curved. Google real Strawberry jerseys from 1983-1990 and you will see what I mean.
The strip tag is definitely not factory done.
The Rawlings tag has been sewn on more than once.
Wow...Looking for ...
Any Game Used Mets jerseys from 1986 and 1987
