Majestic BP Jersey Primer

[cjw]

Rudy...I forgot about this post (and subsequently sold the Twins BP jersey) but have a Chicago White Sox BP-style jersey that I hope to get an opinion on. Replica or team issued do you think? Thanks...chris

i'm no sox expert but i don't think it's team issued. i can't even identify the style. it looks like the home pullover game jersey (not BP) that they wore from '82-'86 but those had nobs and the back numbers weren't red. it doesn't look like any BP shirt that i know of. have also never seen that kind of majestic tag on a gamer.

my guess is that it's either a retail shirt or a minor league shirt. either or. you could email d. miedema over at mears for a conclusive opinion.

Hello Rudy, I was hoping you would be able to tell me if all or if this type of stitching for the care tag is expected out of cool base retail, game used and team issued jerseys?

the second/bottom pic looks fine. i can't see the stitching in the first/top pic because of the overexposure/flash.

I see. Well, is it safe to say that Cool Base jerseys have the care tag stitched on the seam, and of course the regular polyesters within, as a norm?

hi jose

re: cool base jerseys being sewn on the seam.

i personally don't have any cool base gamers. you should definitely post in the main "game used memorabilia" discussion area and ask. many members have cool base gamers and they could post their images to compare. could be interesting!

Hi Rudy...hi everyone else who looks.....one more possible team issued BP jersey?

This is a great looking, Padres jersey with two color fabric, sewn on lettering, Majestic collar and hem tagging...blank-backed and no size tag. Retail?

Definitely a replica...from 1982-86, the Sox wore red mesh home BPs and blue mesh versions on the road.

Also, keep in mind that Majestic first was called that in 1984. The 1983 BP shirts (both home red and road blue) carried Roman Sports tagging. The 1982 BP top, a totally different design as seen on Ron Leflore's 1983 Fleer card (I'd appreciate it if someone could post a photo of it) was supplied by Sand-Knit.

In relation to this, there are several red Roman Sports home BP jerseys floating around being advertised as 1984 Tom Seaver jerseys. Most, if not all, are very new looking, and in 1983 #41 was Dick Tidrow, not Seaver.
