Picked up this patch awhile ago for CHEAP! Didn't research the patch until now on the patch (thanks to Tony's last post to get me started). This looks to be from a sleeve patch worn on all Dodgers jerseys in 1984. If so, I believe the jersey Topps is now using in the 2014+ cards might be from the jersey in this auction: http://www.milehighcardco.com/1984-fernando-valenzuela-los-angeles-dodgers-game--lot29078.aspx

The card:

Great card and research! Looks like a proable match to me. Even better you got a steal on it :)

Thanks! I was lucky to pick it up via Best Offer right when Triple Threads came out for the year. I've only seen this one and one other one with the sleeve logo and all others I can see have either a team letter patch, nameplate patch or number patch on them. It looks like the patches he has in Tier 1 that just released are from much later in his career with the Orioles since they are black and orange patches.

Nice Job and even nicer card Alex. Fernandos patches are still pretty new and rare being a sleeve patch makes it that much better.

Here are some Ultimate patches I found, Mo and Jeets will eventually be in Hall of fame so posting these prematurely wont look as bad, lol

Thanks Tony! Yeah, it has been fun reflecting back on a lot of the cards I have now and spending time trying to prove what auctions the jerseys came from since all of the wording now a days being used are so vague. That Joe Morgan is pretty great! Makes me REALLY miss the Clemente patch, but I wouldn't have the solid foundation I now have without the trade you hooked me up with :)

Love the schmidt! Speaking of jeter...here is my recent jeter pick up. It's the best jeter patch I've even seen. IMO ha. Jeter yankee home pinstripe patches are hard to come by, espically jumbo jeter home pinstripes. I finally found one :)

im sure there are better jeter patch cards...I have just searched for like 5 years to finally find a jumbo home pinstripe jeter patch!
