Photomatch?

Re: Photomatch?

Check that thread on the "I", if you hit that I would say conclusive, the "D" looks to be a match though.

Re: Photomatch?

Thank you for the helpful responses.


To answer a few of the questions asked. The jersey was one of several road jerseys offered to me by Marc of the Tigers.

The hologram (MLB authentication) has it as "issued". Marc told me directly that HE feels it was collected after a 2011 playoff game and not authenticated immediately and mislabeled as "issued" sometime later. The date on the MLB authentication shows it as Oct 21, 2011. The playoffs ended on the 15th.

My thoughts were, as many of you with "issued" bats that turn out to be game used hr bats can attest to, is that I might have stumbled upon aj actual used jersey that just wasn't authenticated properly. It does happen.

Now, as far as Cabrera's road 2011 playoff jerseys go. Marc said that the Oct. 2nd hr jersey is not available. So that rules this jersey out for being it. Plus that jersey would show significant dirt on the front.

Marc has for sale the road Playoff jersey from game one (Oct 1) and game 5 (Oct 6) when the Tigers defeated the Yankees to move on to face Texas. The jersey Marc has was easily photomatched to game 5 with a dirt stain near the waistline of the jersey. I don't want that jersey simply because Cabrera was 0-3 in both games. So this jersey is not that one either.

That leaves Sept 30 (the 1st 2 inning of Game 1 that were rained out) and Oct 15th, the last Tiger playoff game vs Texas.


As for the wiseguy respone about the pictures I provided. They are the only photos that were provided to me and all I have to work with.

I am merely hoping that someone might see something I don't and I may find a match to the Oct 15th pkayoff game. I figure...they lost...jersey wasn't collected/authenticated until days later etc. Explaining the Oct 21st date. Could have happened. Long shot, I know.

I do appreciate the last posters respknse and pics. I had not known about that site as a source. I will add it to my list of photo sites I use.


If anyone has any other hi res pics of Cabrera in his jersey on Oct 15th, please post them and atleast, if nothing else, I can rule this jersey out and move on in my seemlessly neverending search for a Cabrera game used hr jersey.

I apologize for getting a little "testy". I was excited and thought I had a really good POSSIBILITY of a match. After a 6 year search (since his Marlin days) I am sure some of you can understand the tedious task I have been on and how you would feel if you thought you had finally reached the promised land.

That is my #1 desired piece. A Cabrera Tigers road hr jersey, with photomatch. Sorry if my newbie excited irritated some of you "seasoned" collectors.

You can probably rule out your jersey being from the 15th.

Thank you Dach. That certainly rules that out.
