Ben,

I don't own a 73 Seaver. I think you saw the 72 Seaver owned by Andy Fogel in the NY Times and Forbes articles.

I was asking David Louie, sorry

David,

Do you or did you have a '73 Seaver? I thought that I'd seen one either here or in an article somewhere.

No on both counts. The only Seaver gamer I have ever owned was a 1976 Mets home, and that was almost 30 years ago.

Heritage, to their credit, has pulled the Seaver jersey, after a U2A (Unable to Authentic) grading from MEARS.

Here's a similar bad 73 Seaver. Not the same jersey as evidenced by the "Y" in the "YORK"

Here's the back and front of the jersey.

The Tom Seaver 1973 Mets road jersey in the Heritage 2/21-22 auction has a couple of red flags.

I can't get the photos to post, but the main problem is a 1979-86 Wilson tag on a purported 1973 jersey. Second, the collar strip tag font is not consistent with known 1973 Mets road exemplars. Heritage was notified almost a week ago and, while acknowledging the inquiry, has not acted as of now to remove the item.
