O'Neill Tagging Grey Flannel?

Re: O'Neill Tagging Grey Flannel?

Russell is not too consistant with font styles, Kingjammy posted a pic of a Curtis 1998 jersey with what looks to be a Steiner sticker and the "I" has a serif. I have a Rivera from 1998 also from Steiner and it is like the "I" in question, no serif. Since both come from Steiner I would have to say Russell used both fonts in their tagging with no consistancy.

George,
Yes, Russell was never consistent with their font styles. To discard a jersey because of a font in one letter on the tagging makes no sense. Many collectors live and die by the tagging and are not ready to believe that slight deviations in some fonts do not mean that a jersey is not authentic. Look at other factors in the jersey. I'm sure your Rivera is probably a great piece where authenticity is not a question. Enjoy it.
