Re: Game Used Favre Story in SCD
One thing to note is the various places Favre is in the photos of him signing/holding the jerseys. I have these photos with him sitting in his truck (when its is raining), standing in what appears to be a golf course, sitting in a garage, and the AMI one looks like he is standing in the doorway of a garage. These don't seem to be situations where he really sat down and fully examined the jersey to make sure it was game used. Would those not seem to indicate he was handed a jersey, told this is from the "xx" game, he signs it, puts a hologram on it and he is done with it?

That can't be a photo match.
There are no red circles and the picture isn't blurry enough.Leave a comment:

Re: Game Used Favre Story in SCD
sorry for the multiple posts, but look at the purple line on the #4 on the left sleeve...perfect match
The repair to the right of the 4 on front is a no brainer

Re: Game Used Favre Story in SCD
Roger: Could the "B" be a sloppy "R"? It would make more sense, since your jersey was worn in games against Chicago, the Jaguars and the Rams.
Mvandor: Unfortunately, at this point, yes, I believe the majority of these jerseys w/letters are fakes. Again, this is from what I've seen. There certainly could be the possibility that a larger number of good ones are secure in collections, and never resold or given exposure to other collectors. I hope that's the case, but I'd like to see evidence of that.

Re: Game Used Favre Story in SCD
I would like to say that I have always found Radke a good and decent guy to deal with.
I want to offer up my Favre jersey for some reference point and so we can see if the paperwork is consistant. First, pictures of my jersey and a game photo. I photo matched it before I bought it.
Then the watermark on the paperwork. Is it the same on the fraudulent jerseys? The letters came from Radke so I would guess all in this era should have the same paper.
It is hard to see in the picture but written in the collar with a black marker is CTB. Is this on any other jerseys?

Re: Game Used Favre Story in SCD
It's worth reiterating that not every Favre jersey w/the hologram, paperwork, etc. is bogus. The legitimate Favre jersey I used as a comparison in the photos I took for the article came with a letter and picture, for example. However, from what I am aware of, it does seem as if the majority are fakes.
What I found interesting is how these bogus jerseys all had unique "problems". For example, I examined another Favre jersey similar to the 2004 discussed in the article. This was after Chris had nearly finished the piece. This jersey had a contrived 02-52 year/size tag in the collar, and, of course, was larger than a 52. It was hemmed the same way, but the sleeve construction was correct. The sleeves on the '04 were constructed and sewn on much differently than what you would expect to find on a legitimate jersey.

Re: Game Used Favre Story in SCD
Hardly any of their newer football jerseys have any provenance...
Adrian Peterson, Favre, etc have their own deals going....how could they possibly sell them without any provenance?...Oh, the back door story?...sure...that's what some of these auction guys will be getting themselves when they get nailed selling this trash...don't bend over for the soap!!
Players like Tom Brady are IMPOSSIBLE to get, along with Steelers equipment....yet they are sold all the time
Waaaaaaaaayyyyy to much garbage out there...
anyways I'm starting to get off topic....Leave a comment:

Re: Game Used Favre Story in SCD
Hmm, certainly seems like Favre has been accounting for his jerseys through Thomason further back than 2007. How'd this one, unsigned and sans paperwork, get outside the system I have to ask?another favre jersey (unsigned) currently listed at grey flannel...

Re: Game Used Favre Story in SCD
I understand. After reading everything it certainly appears there were no accidents here but that someone was feeding Brett carefully prepared fakes to sign, mixed in with the legit stuff. Was this done to ferret out a few free jerseys for someone's own collection? Or to scam enough to send a few kids to college?Leave a comment:
