Passed on this one for today. May go back tomorrow an get it. $7 for the jacket. It had an NFL Apparel tag and had the Sport Illustrated "SI" logo on the right sleeve. I'm just not sure how many Vikings fan exist anymore. Thoughts?

The pic looks blue, but I assure you, it's purple.

I'll have to look at my jersey guide for the lettering on that Piazza, but that's an authentic BP jersey. I don't for one second think it's one he wore, but authentic and not a replica.

While in Indianapolis a few weeks ago I found a vintage Cliff Engle Colts sweater for $5.

Got it for a co-worker who is a huge Colts fan.

I was just going to give it to him, but he insisted on paying me the $5 for it.

I looked it up on eBay and there were completed listings of sold items up to $60 for the exact one I found.

I wasn't going to list it though. Just wanted to get something for my friend.

After my wife seen what they were going for, she suggested listing it, but I don't care. I told my friend it would be perfect for an ugly sweater party around Christmas. I knew it was something awesome as soon as I seen it on the rack.

I think the Piazza jersey should have red 31 on front, but everything else looks authentic. Might cost about $20 to get it done. If interested, I have some contact info for a company that can do it. Font for name and number all looks correct and is sewn on.
