Re: tbc jerseys?

Brian, I asked Steve when I bought my KC jersey if there where any game-used caps that went with the MONARCHS uniforms but he said that they were none. Sorry, but I got one of the Detriot jerseys that came with a cap.,

Re: tbc jerseys?

Nice Stuff everyone, especially Detroit Tigers, on the TBTC Tigers uniform's, not all the players turned in the hats, some kept them for themselves, a lot were missing according to Steve, on some Steve simply included genric hats and told the buyers that. The next time the Tigers play a retro game on the road, Steve plans to go so everything is accounted for right after.

Last night i was in Steve & Mike's Cage, and they have about 20 generic TBTC 77 Style Hats, from size 6 1/8 to 7 1/4, as i was looking for a size 7 3/8 for myself but it was not to be, ......they did have some extra Negro League Hats also. $40 each, i beleive for either.

Re: tbc jerseys?

Brian B......no problem on snagging the Butler before me...that's what it is all about...first come, first serve....besides....you are probably more excited about it than I would be and so that is good.......it should be unwashed....so I hope ya got one that has some good wear on it! XPFO....nice additions to your collection....I would find the guy who sold you the TBTC Ordonez and get the hat that he has on Ebay as well.....he should have sold that to you with it....I am sure he made some $$ on it and should have included it in the set as it was sold that way by the Tigers.........wish I knew how to post my pics of my pick ups.....I will work on it and see if I can join in the fun.

Sorry...I don't mean TBTC, I meant Negro League.

Re: tbc jerseys?

My Maggs TBTC jersey is filthy with dirt and pine tar....I posted a pic in the August Pick-ups section...it doesn't show too well, cuz most is on the front, but on the back you can see two clear handprints as well as other marks.

Re: tbc jerseys?

hanks for the replies from both of you! PudgePollyMillerFan, I am sorry I snagged it right before you. I have been looking for Billy Butler GU items forever, and I finally found one (at a reasonable price too!) so I snagged it along with Gordon's as they seem inseparable (both rookies and ex-teammates from the minors) like twin children.
I have not gotten them yet so I am not sure how much use they show. Steve was telling me they were unwashed so I was pretty excited about that. I will post pics as soon as I get them.
Thanks again for this discussion. The Tigers seems to have made a success out of this TBTC game.

Re: tbc jerseys?

BrianBorsch........I did not pick up any of the Negro League gamers......looked through them all at the mini expo they had....definately did not wash any of them as several had great wear on them (Polanco, Casey come to mind).........I believe they did wash the TBTC jerseys.....as I purchased the entire Pudge Rodriguez uniform and I have several photomatch pics of him from that game and he has dirt all over his pants from attempting to steal a base....but the pants do not have any of that dirt on them now and I know they are the same pants...so that leads me to believe they at least washed the pants because they shirt has stains on it and dirt/sweat etc......they did not sell the pants with the Negro league gamers as they will be re-using them next year in the same game according to Steve Graus.......You actually beat me to the Butler gamer as Steve said someone called in about 15 minutes before I did.....guess that would be you...lol! Never got a chance to look at it as they shipped it out to you before I got a chance to see if there was any wear on it etc......The Tigers sell all of their one game wonders (TBTC / Negro League etc) at a lower price than the regular season/playoff gamers (Ie I paid $1000 for Pudge's TBTC entire uniform and was offered the home/road from the first half for $1500)........so I would say they are valued definately a little less than the regular season gamers.....plus they don't have the players names on the back of them either (Negro League Gamers)......

Re: tbc jerseys?

Again...it is based on what someone is willing to pay, however as a guideline for example, Curtis Granderson's Negro League Jersey and Turn Back the Clock Jerseys were being sold at $750 (The TBTC being the complete uniform), while his Set 1 home jersey was $900 and Road jersey $1000.

On the Ball Park Heores website, the TBTC jerseys/one game jerseys Kim has carries a premium.

I would think they are both pretty equal...again it always goes back to what someone will pay.

Re: tbc jerseys?

One more question, if you have a Negro league throwback GU jersey from a players rookie year, would it hold as much value as one of their regular GU jerseys because it is more rare? Or would it be less valuable due to it being worn only once?

[XPFO]

Re: tbc jerseys?

Wow, the Mitchell and Ness jersey seems to be way better with the date sewn on. I wonder why some teams use AIS for their jerseys. Do the M&N jerseys hold more value than the AIS jerseys?

I would say definitley not at all....all depends on the player.

A couple of shots of the 2000 TBC jerseys from M&N, with full date of the game in the jersey tagging.
