TMLFAN Posted June 25, 2010 Report Share Posted June 25, 2010 I plan on having EPS make the kit for me but would like to have a reference picture to give them since I noticed a couple of small errors with their kit. If you have them please send them to me or post them up, the higher res the better. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oates Posted June 25, 2010 Report Share Posted June 25, 2010 Don't have a pic of Gretzky's game worn.. Only quality photo Wayne in the jersey I'm aware of. But here's a game worn Mattias Norstrom '95 - '96: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TMLFAN Posted June 25, 2010 Author Report Share Posted June 25, 2010 if your in toronto you should try gamedaysportsarchives.com they did my burger king jersey and it was quality work and the price was reasonable I use him for a lot of my stuff but the burger king Gretzky on his site isn't accurate. EPS' isn't 100% accurate either but it's closer then gameday's and would only need minor tweaking on a couple letters to make perfect which is why I want to go with them.

TMLFAN Posted June 25, 2010 Author Report Share Posted June 25, 2010 Thanks for the help everybody but I've seen those two pics on Getty already but they don't show the back which is what I'm really looking for. I've got pics of a bunch of other BK gameworn/issued pics that I'm using letters off to make Gretzky but I still haven't found ones that show the Z, K, and Y.

TMLFAN Posted June 27, 2010 Author Report Share Posted June 27, 2010 Finding pics of Gretzky's actual jersey looks to be impossible but if anybody has pics of a gamer of any player with a Z or Y in their name please post it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akteon Posted June 27, 2010 Report Share Posted June 27, 2010 Finding pics of Gretzky's actual jersey looks to be impossible but if anybody has pics of a gamer of any player with a Z or Y in their name please post it. Your only chance for a "Z" is if Doug Zmolek who played 16 games for the Kings that season had a Burger King jersey. The "Y" should be possible though.

TMLFAN Posted June 30, 2010 Author Report Share Posted June 30, 2010 Sent u my team issued pics to your email, did u get them?...wait, here..96 alt back... I did but some of the letters do not match the letters on the other gamers I've seen. Was the customization done after the fact or was it done by the same place that did the game jerseys because it doesn't look right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure the jersey came from the team because authentics were never made available for retail but the customization does not look the same as the other gamers I have pics off. Here is your jersey; The letters on the gamers are italic and yours are not. Have a look at the pics of the gamers I posted and compare the "G" "R" and "E". I don't think that your jersey came from the team with the customization done already, I think another shop did the work and didn't match it up too well.

Iced on the Island Posted June 30, 2010 Report Share Posted June 30, 2010 if u have the letter shape just make sure they're leaned right slightly, I stretched mine across for photos...then u should be ok, again ,there are several horrible jobs done on these, some with incorrect twill, or I have one and have seen others with a white namebar, which beside one without looks ridiculous.....

flountown Posted June 30, 2010 Report Share Posted June 30, 2010 Yeah it looks like whomever did that authentic hit the bold, not the italics, but I do agree with Iced' just take his letters and skew them a bit until they match the italics angle of the other letters, problem solved.

chow_hound Posted July 6, 2010 Report Share Posted July 6, 2010 This May be the only picture out there of the back of Gretzky's BK that shows decent detail. The Font is Definitely in Italics (Not at all a regular font just tilted), and the spacing is slightly wider then most people have done on their replica's. Hope it helps whoever needs it !

JustAnothaVictim Posted July 6, 2010 Report Share Posted July 6, 2010 As far as I know Gretzky's original game jersey is in the HHoF. I just found this one in my "archive" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TMLFAN Posted July 7, 2010 Author Report Share Posted July 7, 2010 Thanks for the pic of the "Z" all I need is a "Y" and I can photoshop GRETZKY Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
