Re: Mariano Rivera 1998 W.S. jersey

Saw this a little earlier. And the text font of the description immediately jumped out at me. The other thing I didn't like is that the holos are the type that don't have serial numbers. I've seen lots of those holos before but I'd want to have numbers on a purchase of an item like this. Not that you can look up the numbers at Steiner anyway but with these holos, 2 can be carefully peeled from cheap items and one put on each of the jersey and letter and they would still "match". With the numbered ones, one would have had to be removed from a letter which I doubt could work without damaging it.

I guess I'm skeptical "a" letter was scanned and the description added in a different font and then printed and holos added. Could be real, but that scenario scares me away.

He also only had one appearance in his home jersey, in game one.

Guys, I need your thoughts on this jersey

I have a few questions. Does the Steiner LOA look a little different to you. What I mean is the LOA looks like someone typed the description in. has anyone seen another Steiner LOA that looked like this? I thought players where issued new jersey for the World Series or did they just sew W.S. patches on the carry overs? The jersey tagging shows a ton of use for a jersey that would have only bin used in 2 games. Any help would be appreciated.
