The Grimes is the best one of the bunch IMO!
I'm not concerned myself with the modern day players with their cards being game-used but I am definitely concerned with players from the early 1900s like Ruth, Mantle, etc. How can you really prove that these card companies are using pieces of jerseys worn by those players?

What about this Reese "laundry tag"? Am I wrong, or does that say "Hall of Fame"?

How could a game worn jersey have that notation? Seems this is a Mitchall and Ness jersey to me...

Wow! That is fantastic! Thanks for posting and I gotta take it back. I would never expect that on a tag that was period.

I've always wondered that too about their authenticating process. There can only be a handful of Ruth jerseys out there. Also, seems with those older guys, the print runs are really low when they are in a product and I'm sure they can get 1000's of small gu patches out of each jersey/bat so 1 jersey/bat probably goes a long way and lasts for a long time.

You can see that the jersey behind the first button card is polyester.
He asked how it compared with the older buttons/jerseys.
Any other questions?

When guying game-used cards of older players, you definitely need to take a close look at the material. In addition to the Berra, I've seen a few Luke Appling buttons look like they were from a game-used uniform and another that looks modern.
