Willie Mays Minneapolis Millers Photo Matched Jersey

[gameused]

I was watching the Antique Roadshow tonight and this guy brought in a 1951 Willie Mays minor league Minneapolis Millers jersey that he purchased for just $50.00, the best part is that he found a black and white photo of Mays wearing the exact jersey, in the photo you can see a team repair on the right sleeve that is an exact match to his jersey. The jersey was appraised at $60,000 to $80,000. Unbelievable story!!

I saw that too, rerun. After that, the jersey went up in a Mastro auction , last year (?) and got only $38000.00, considering Lipman's "conservative" estimate that it would go for between $60000.00-$80000.00.

I have to say I'm more a bat person (Big MAC) than a jersey guy,But when I saw that show it was pretty cool too watch.I would like to know whats Howard take on this jersey.
