I pulled out a 92 home Leafs of mine to sell a couple months ago, and as soon as I saw it, I couldn't do it. It just works. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spudrock512 Posted July 7, 2016 Report Share Posted July 7, 2016 So the Fisherman Jersey that I bought arrived today. I am going to need some help from the community - So I know that when these jersey first came out that there were complaints about the logo being too big and stiff. This one measures 16" across at its largest point. A few Questions: Is this the original first style that they used and does anyone know when the switched to the small crest version? I am still thinking about a Palffy jersey, but, or course, he changed numbers midway through the season (from $68 to #16) the first year these were used. I just want to make sure that I get the correct number for the correct crest on the jersey. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

furiousd Posted July 7, 2016 Report Share Posted July 7, 2016 Nice jersey. Looks more like this one from 96-97 to me: http://www.gamewornauctions.net/products/1996_97_Derek_King_New_York_Islanders_Game_Worn_Jersey_25_year_Anniversary_Fisherman_Logo-7982-185.html than this 95-96 one: http://www.gamewornauctions.net/products/1995_96_Derek_King_New_York_Islanders_Game_Worn_Jersey_Fisherman_Logo-7284-173.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

furiousd Posted July 7, 2016 Report Share Posted July 7, 2016 I also found it interesting that there are numerous name/number font differences between the two seasons. Maybe that's common knowledge, but I hadn't looked at them closely until I was thinking of buying one recently. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I may be in disagreement with the others here, but it's my impression that Spudrock's jersey might be the earlier large crest version. That jersey looks huge, around a 58 or even a 60. The larger crest might look small on a jersey that size when compared to the King jerseys, which are 54's. If you extrapolate the size of the 1995/96 King gamer's crest based on a 27" jersey width, it turns out close to 16", which is the same as Spudrock's. So I would guess that he might have the older 95/96 version. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was hoping that other that have fisherman jerseys that know what version they have could compare the size of the crest so we can all know the difference between the two jersey crest sizes.

LAK74 Posted July 7, 2016 Report Share Posted July 7, 2016 Jeremy (NYIJM29) would know. He was just hanging around here yesterday; hopefully he'll see this and reply. For some reason that jersey looked bigger than a 56 to me, although of course I was just eyeballing it. Is it really only 28" pit-to-pit?

Nah, the quick responders are just the amateur sleuths and geometry buffs. Looking at them again, I'm not sure what I think. 16" is a big crest, though.

Brilliant! Posted July 7, 2016 Author Report Share Posted July 7, 2016 I love the way the letters are cut on those unis. Kiss-cut at its finest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brilliant! Posted July 8, 2016 Author Report Share Posted July 8, 2016 Did they give you a sublimated nameplate? I believe those SP jerseys were dyed, yes? I remember doing one for a customer not too long ago and the difference between the dyed plate and the material colored plate was pretty significant.

amonte78 Posted July 8, 2016 Report Share Posted July 8, 2016 Got my Devils Retro GI today! Looks great, but not too happy about packaging. The white MGG box seemed smaller and the jersey was crammed in the box, which resulted in a wrinkly jersey. That should not happen for $60 shipping Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
great1 Posted July 8, 2016 Report Share Posted July 8, 2016 Beautiful Chris Kelly jersey, I absolutely love the lettering kit on those early to mid 2000 jerseys. I have had this jersey for a little while now but never got around to posting it, Erik Karlsson's 2011-12 Ottawa Senator Heritage jersey with the All-Star patch and from his first Norris Trophy winning season, he also scored his 100th NHL point in this jersey. The jersey has custom shortened sleeves and the lace ties were removed by Erik. This was Ottawa's first season after leaving MeiGray and they did not sell the jerseys online, they were sold at Scotiabank Place (now Canadian Tire Centre).

I figure they were stored in boxes at one point. Do you have an iron? It should steam out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NYIJM29 Posted July 8, 2016 Report Share Posted July 8, 2016 LAK74 is correct! Few things of note: 1) Isles Fisherman crests were removed off the jerseys after the 95/96 -- to my knowledge only the team issued would have smaller crests. The authentics should all have the original larger crest. 2) On the smaller crests, the last "S" in "Islanders" has a sharp point, pointing outwards. The larger crest, the outside of that "S" is rounded. 3) There is no consistency with Cutting Edge wave customization. I own a game used 96/97 recycled with the traditional crest that has stacked, reverse, and semi kiss cut customization. From the same year, I have a GI fisherman that is just straight reverse. So, I would recommend doing whichever style you prefer. I prefer the semi kiss cut customization. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
