Rudy,

Glad to see you posting again. Your insight has been missed on this forum. On behalf of the collecting community, I'd like to thank you for taking time out to produce such a comprehensive guide for Blue Jays jerseys. Most importantly, thank you for making it available free of charge to collectors. Contributions to the hobby like this are often taken for granted, so I wanted to take time to say a simple "thank you". Keep up the great work.

Best,

Hello Rudy,

At the risk of sounding corny, I have to say I am right now feeling the same way I did when I took a class in school and found out a really gifted student was going to be in the same class with me. That is, I knew if I listened carefully when they spoke and tried to interact with them as much as possible, I had the opportunity to become a better student by being around them.

Since I think we should all, in one way or another, constantly look to increase our knowledge as 'students' in this hobby, I will echo everyone else's comments about how excited we are to see you posting again on the site. In addition, I think Rob's post above is very appropriate in expressing our thanks for creating such a fantastic reference guide that can hopefully help a lot of collectors.

Thanks again for everything and I look forward to us all working together to help the collecting community every way possible.

Sincerely,
Chris Cavalier

Great job Rudy.

I even noticed that my finger made a cameo in one of the "Spare" photos.

Rudy,

What can I say? You are the man for putting this together. Such a great resource for Blue Jays collectors.

Just wanted to post an update on Pg. 12, Section 8 in the Notes section. I spoke with Darryl De Franco of the Blue Jays and he confirmed that the Jays no longer issue certificates, but rather rely on the MLB authentication program. However, it is worthwhile to note that the Blue Jays no longer issue LOAs for jerseys made BEFORE 2004 but still sell today. For instance, they still have several 1989 jerseys available, but if you bought one from the Blue Jays today, it would be sold as-is, with no COA. Several members of this forum have confirmed this since their recent purchases over the last year.

In other words, if you buy a GW jersey directly from the Blue Jays that is made pre 2004, you will not get an LOA. I guess if the jersey matches what you have stated in your awesome guide and it LOOKS game used and it was said to have been GW by the Blue Jays, it is authentic .

I can forward anyone who's interested Darryl's response to my question. He is the Supervisor for Warehouse Distribution with the Toronto Blue Jays.

Thanks again!
