    Rudy,

    you are correct, as the arch is very pronounced on the away jersey compared to the home white. as far as the Jones nameplate on the home white, you are correct again.....it is difficult to tell if a nameplate is present. i downloaded the picture, and it didnt appear to have one, but as you said, it isnt clear. it does, however, look like the "smith" jersey does have a nameplate. all in all, they did have some font issues!

        Pete, isn't the tag on the jersey a store tag? From the Vintage Authentic Web Site:

        Home red Wilson ProLine Kansas City Chiefs jersey used by HOF quarterback Joe Montana during his 1994 NFL season - the league's 75th Anniversary as well. The gamer features all sewn 2-color identifiers including body and sleeve numerals and correct NOB. Also included are two beautiful patches in proper position including the NFL's 75th year patch on the left chest and KC's 35 year anniversary as the Chiefs. It is appropriately tagged on outer tail with Wilson ProLine wash label flagged for size 44 ID. Overall this quality last season HOF representation exhibits light apropos superstar QB wear and earns a final authentic grade of 6.5.

                I'm wetting my skirt with anticipation of winning all of these......

                That's because I know you are all incorrect.


                These jerseys are absolute pieces of historic GOLD.

                I will turn around, and dump them on ebay......and make a MINT!






                Not really.

                Simply pathetic.

                  Are they reliable and trustworthy or am I throwing away money bidding with them? Specifically:


                  Maybe Kyle can chime in on this one but I don't think the lettering looks right for "Braves" or "Jones" I also see on getty images that he wore both "Jones" and "C. Jones" in the playoffs but game 3 of the 1996 W.S. was Andruw's 2 hr game and I think he had C. Jones during the W.S.

                  Opinions?

                  It should take anyone.....oh.....I don't know.......POINT-8 SECONDS to identify the "N" in Jones on the NOB as a letter that is cut for the end of a longer name.

                  Look at it......it is angled to be placed to the right or end of a name. As a letter placed in the middle of the name, it should appear "level", with no slope.


                  This stuff is so bad, it's insulting to even a novice.

                  But this shows us all JUST how desperate some people get when shopping for items of their sports star favorites. It will sell.....and that's sad.

                    I can definitively end the argument here. I follow all Chipper jerseys, and I have an extensive DVD collection of old games.

                    The jersey is a fake. I already checked the 96 World Series footage carefully (all 3 home games), and it is a fake. The nameplate is completely off, and the 'Braves' on the front of the jersey is off as well. Someone is going to waste a lot of money on some very expensive laundry.

                    Who knows...maybe this was a game-issued jersey that he didn't actually wear, but who cares?? He never wore it in a World Series game, and that's what this auction implies.

                    End of story.
