A question about Colorado Rockies game used..

Re: A question about Colorado Rockies game used..

Great thread. Quick question for you Chris.

I inquired about this about a year ago, let me know if you've uncovered anything or know of anything.


I own a Matt Holliday jersey with code 0063. Of course, 00XX and XX00 are de facto regulations as per Authentics and GU/TI and not absolute. I would simply deduce that my Holliday is a Team-Issued but what's keeping me from concluding this, is that the NOB has that glitter substance, which I have never seen for a TI/GU Rockies jersey.
Now, the jersey is a Black Alt. Cool base. I have several GU and TI of contrasting players of the Cool base/Black alt., but none of them with that glitter on the NOB. Any reason to believe my Holliday is Team-Issued?

Jose -

I have never really gotten into the Majestic jerseys and tagging for the Rox, so unfortunately, I cannot answer this question for you.

If memory serves, you are in the Springs, right? If so, go to the Dug Out store and ask for Matt (?)... I'm pretty sure he was and is still the Manager of that store - it's been a couple of years since I've been there. He might have some examples or be able to tell you about the 'glittery' lettering/numbers.

Is your jersey a Vest or BP jersey?

I own a Signed Holliday Vest from Mounted Memories and it has the glittery letters/number on back... I know it's not team issued - it's only a Sz 46.

Actually, I'm in Downtown Denver, but if it takes a trip to the springs, then I'll try to make it there sooner or later.

The jersey is a size 48. Of course, Matty wore a size in the 50s, if I am not wrong? However, the Rockies don't seem to specifically create TI jerseys to match the player's wants as I own a Podsednik TI #29 and an actual gamer;#22. The jersey is the black vest, from the '07 year. Cool base, of course. I believe, even tagging on the jerseys is rather ambiguous and leaves a lot to be desired: I recently purchased a Greg Reynolds Uniform and no tagging whatsoever, just your basic LOA from the Rockies.

Re: A question about Colorado Rockies game used..

I was finally able to get a close up good enought o show what I've been talking about on Rockies Home White Jerseys made by RUSSELL that were either GU or TI or at least Club House issued even if they left as Blank backs.

They should have THESE buttons (CREAM COLOR):

Re: A question about Colorado Rockies game used..

The Rockies seem to have become collectively allergic to tagging since their link-up with Majestic (2005). I have seen flag tags with extra length notations on a select few 2005-2009 Rox gamers, but, as far as names, numbers, years, sets, sizes, strip tags...nada.

The Rockies have been 'allergic' (good word choice BTW) to tagging since their inception... their is no 'set in stone' rhyme or reason to their Russell tagging either... it just seems to be whatever they think of at the time of order...

Even in the same season their are multiple types of Tagging on Rox jerseys from Russell.

Chris, you are on the money. I know that Russell used a lot of different formats, and even used retail tagging in some of their 1993s that were bulk purchased by Ball Park Heroes. Consistency is not in the Rox team thesaurus.
