Which style jersey? Pics would greatly help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robert Ullman Posted May 17, 2013 Report Share Posted May 17, 2013 The top and bottoms of the C's and A's are sometimes skinnier than others. I haven't been able to ascertain any consistency. http://www.ebay.com/itm/1995-96-Mario-Lemieux-Pittsburgh-Penguins-Game-Worn-Alternate-50th-Goal-Jersey-/300893053165?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item460e9fa0ed http://jjdistributing.weebly.com/1967-07-black-jerseys.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thebiggoalie Posted May 17, 2013 Report Share Posted May 17, 2013 What make is your jersey? My Jagr Proplayer looks exactly like the one you showed on the right. I think it was just after proplayer when they slimmed the C down like they did to yours. Edit: Now I see yours is a Koho. I'm pretty sure that's what the C looked like then. Your arm numbers look fine to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thebiggoalie Posted May 17, 2013 Report Share Posted May 17, 2013 Come to think of it, your thread is titled "2000-2001 Penguins". Why would you compare it to a 1999-2000 Penguins? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iceman91 Posted May 17, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 17, 2013 I couldnt find that year with a C on it. I thought they were all the same. but apparently there not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thebiggoalie Posted May 17, 2013 Report Share Posted May 17, 2013 I couldnt find that year with a C on it. I thought they were all the same. but apparently there not. The C's and A's varied from the original thick ones to the present skinnier one over the years. The following style (when they bought back the skating penguin logo) had both as well. There's even a CCM airknit (the first one of that style) Robopens Lemieux gamer on eBay right now that has the same C as yours. There's just no consistency to them.

LAK74 Posted May 17, 2013 Report Share Posted May 17, 2013 There are definitely some differences in the C's, like the gap between the top and bottom, the thickness of the white portion, and the amount of slant of the letter. Most gamers I remember seeing from that period looked like this one: http://www.classicauctions.net/Default.aspx?tabid=263&auctionid=38&lotid=399 I don't think the C's on this model jersey varied much at all between the Starter years all the way to the last Koho model.

PensJerseys Posted May 17, 2013 Report Share Posted May 17, 2013 Sigh...I wish I had Joe's collection. That isn't even his personal collection...just what he is reselling. haha I've seen a few of his personal items at the jersey expo in town, but I've heard that the entire thing is pretty spectacular.

AngeloS76 Posted May 17, 2013 Report Share Posted May 17, 2013 I'm with TBG on this one. It's accurate to the font that the Penguins used, so it's not wrong by any means. If Jagr wore that style at least once, then it's 100% to the original. Also, the font on the arm numbers is correct, just with a slightly thinner yellow border on all the edges.
