Huh?? I can honestly say I've never seen that before. Is that for real though? Because I've seen gamers from that time period and they didn't have red in the leaf.

After doing a bit of research I found one Leaf site that says it was only worn in the 1947 season and I found this on another site,

The_Toronto_Maple_Leafs_Logo.gif

I couldn't find any photos of these jerseys being worn though.

Yeah it might be difficult to tell whether it's red or not because in the 40s most of the photographs were in black and white. Sure, you can tell that the crest is white, but it's hard to tell if the lettering is red or not. Also, not sure if there were many color photos back then. Most of the pictures of Leafs players from the mid-40s are in black and white that are on the Leafs page from Sportsecyclopedia. So I really can't tell. I just know from nhluniform.com, which great1 pointed out, that the "Toronto Maple Leafs" lettering on the front leaf crest was in red for at least one season.

Took advantage of Meigray's Summer Sale and picked up this Ryan Johnson gamer. It's a Set 3, used late in the 2008-09 season and playoffs. Nice wear, and was one of the less expensive RBK 2.0 jerseys on the site.

I'll head on down to the hall of fame and check it out just to be sure. :thumbsup:

Nice pick up, any chance for bigger photos? Wouldn't mind seeing the wear that RJ gets on his jerseys.

Well, that image I think says it all. For Photos Only, to me, means they wore special jerseys for photoshoots with the red lettering on them but also that none were ever worn on the ice. That would make the most sense seeing as how all the ones I've seen from that time period(yeah...all THREE! :D) were blue colored.

My camera doesn't pick up all the details, but you can see a nice blue mark between the 1 and 0 on the back.

Milt had Roman Vopat's a few days ago but checking it now, it looks like it's gone. It was cheap too; $750 or something. No surprise that it's long gone.

You know, I understand the appeal because of how rare it is and everything...but man that is the ugliest thing I have ever seen. If you dig it though, more power to you!

I love those Thrashers Baby Blue's. Great pickup. Perhaps if you ever decide in the future to let one go, I might be interested.

I received my end of a trade with Lightning_4. We swapped Leafs goalie jerseys and this was my return for the Joseph I sent him.

Got this 2000-2001 Flyers Chris McAllister game worn jersey today. Light wear mostly stick marks. The Flyers retired the orange jersey after 2000-2001.

Sick Felix....He's one of the few non-Penguins that I loved while growing up. I think it was because of his pads and helmet....but I enjoyed the guy. Love the jersey....

Here are the finished results of a long, on going project I am very happy to have finally completed. While at first glance they may all look the same, on closer inspection they are either different brands or patched differently from each other depending on which tournament they were worn in.

Gentlemen, I give you the Mats Sundin Sweden Collection.

Re: Jeff's Sweden Jerseys

I approve. I may be biased, but i think Sweden has one of the more underated uniforms as far as IIHF goes, i mean sure....with the horizontal lines and the tre kronor it kind of resembles what I like to call "A Swedish Jack O' Lantern" but its definitely an awesome jersey...
