Griffey Jr Reds Vest on Mears Auction

Re: Griffey Jr Reds Vest on Mears Auction

I've seen the m both ways with both Reds and Mariners jerseys, and personally don't have a problem with that. My only question is, with no mentioned team or player provenance, how did it get an A10 grade?
Still a nice jersey, to me.

It went for a very reasonable price. I hate these 3 am auction endings. I need my beauty sleep.

While for some reason it is not listed on their website, I have seen this on actual LOAs.
something to the effect of
"Mears may add at its discretion 5 points for provenance in the existence of 'Property of' or 'exclusive property of xxx team' tags.
Which this jersey has, and I am sure is how it got the '10'
as I said, it is not on their website, and I do not have a similar LOA in front of me, but I would assume that's how it got the extra 5 points.

At first glance should it not have a 2" extra length tag?

Thoughts on this?
