And, of course, easier to fake. Agreed....but i am trying to sell this and havebeen searching high and low for a match and this is the best i got Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HockeyMusic Posted November 16, 2016 Report Share Posted November 16, 2016 Kinda lends itself to a "i came for this game worn jersey and all i got was a crappy crease photomatch" t-shirt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LAK74 Posted November 16, 2016 Report Share Posted November 16, 2016 That small hole is not what I saw unfortunately; that area of the sleeve is not visible in the picture. Let me ask you this- if you look at the very bottom line of the 5 on the left sleeve and follow it to the left, about 1-1/2" before you hit the crease, is there a very faint stain there? I think I see something, and it's in exactly the same spot in which I saw the dark smudge in the other picture. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do not notice any sort of stain...washed out or otherwise Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have seen photo matches to tiny loose threads on jerseys and small bits of plastic flaking off of helmets, but I wouldn't call any crease a match.

I would add that if there was a severe, deep crease in the crest, that might be something that could be matched to a picture. I'm talking about severe enough that you'd consider it as damage to the crest, not something that could just be panini pressed out. I think I remember one of Brodeur's jerseys having that type of crease in the crest one year, and it was easy to identify. But folds in the material? Not good enough in my opinion. Likely those are from the way it was folded or stored, and they probably do that the same way all the time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
