    Max Kase (American writer and editor) had many successes during his tenure as sports editor of the Journal-American. In 1941, Kase founded the Hearst sandlot baseball program.In 1947, he organized an annual all-star game featuring the best players selected from local all-star games in cities with Hearst newspapers. The national all-star game was played at the Polo Grounds in New York and was called the Hearst Sandlot Classic. Kase solicited Babe Ruth to serve as chairman of the event. The Hearst sandlot program ultimately produced 50 Major League Baseball players, including all-stars Whitey Ford, Al Kaline, Joe Torre, Tony Kubek, Bill Freehan, Mike Marshall, and Bill Skowron > from Wikipedia

        this is a 70's or early 80's rangers helmet "recycled" for use in 86 by catcher orlando mercado. as you can see, the red is exposed. it is a size "M", medium shell. later style helmets were "L" or large shell helmets, making this one unique. don't know how many of these remain but it is cool. out of all the old ABC helmets i own, this is my first of this style. i found a baseball card of orlando wearing this style of "small" helmet and it just might be this one. who knows.

          Wondering, how does that pic photomatch it to the exact jersey? What are the distinguishing marks to prove it was game worn?

            He is basing it off the pinstripes. The E and Z match up as does the sleeze. I think it is a good start and a good chance it is the jersey...but I Dont think it is a for sure match. If I was the owner I would try to find more pics.

              Yes, by the pinstripes/location of the sewn letters and numbers. There was a link provided in the original post to see multiple photos of the pin striping (there are more photos but felt the ones listed were enough). You can click on the link below that is titled "here"
