Jim,

Thanks so much for posting. I am assuming that the reproduction is on the left. Is there a difference in the way the two are made, material, etc.?

Better question is WHY did this jersey recieve a LOA from the "so-called" best authenticator in the business????

I like the way this thread has progressed. Ideas and opinions are being exchanged and its free of any personal attacks against other forum members - it's the way it used to be. It's nice to see an "old-timer" getting involved again.

I just wish I would have saved the photos from the original listing. I just went through my sent messages through ebay and could not find anything. Must of been prior to October.

Re: ebay 1969 Packers game worn jersey

Maybe I can shed some light on this jersey. I received this jersey ( if it's the same one) 8/7/12 for repairs and restoration of the numbers. When it arrived, the numbers were either missing or were in pieces and falling off. there were numerous holes both big and small all over the place. I repaired the holes as best as possible and replaced the numbers front, back and sleeves. The numbers were based on what was on the jersey originally which is what you see in the ebay photos. I added the patch-it's off of a game used NFL jersey. The indiviual who sent the jersey doesn't appear to be the same one who is selling the jersey based on the shipping address it was returned to. At the time, it wasn't represented as a game jersey but as a "Packers style" and was purportedly only to be used as a display piece. It would be nice to know when the MEARS letter was issued since I can't see the date.

Lots of interesting twists in this story. A small observation: it looks like there was a rectangular tag in the collar at some point.

Good catch on the tag. There is a distinct outline where it was. Any ideas what type of tag it could've been?

Lon - quick question for you, when you applied the NFL patch, was there an outline that a patch was on there at some time and later removed?

Thanx,

Jim
