Vintage amateur flannel experts (is there such a thing?) - help me identify this, please

[A_Pharis]

May be minors. May be independent. May be high school or college.
I just figured it was worth a shot to try to ID.

Thanks

No idea...but now all I can think of is "Warriors...Come out to play" Thanks a lot. Good luck.

Not much of a help Adam but I did find this. Check out the bottom left quadrant, this might help prove something but of which I do not know haha!

Woah! That's actually pretty cool. I don't know if it's indicative on the market for the flannel or just the classification. I do appreciate the link, and it'd be cool to have that catalog!

Seems old too when looking at the price haha! Good luck Adam, I'm still searching myself to see if there is anything to pin point. If you get a chance for any other views of the jersey (side of sleeves and see if the front has a patch anywhere near the bottom) that might help too. Were there pants with these as well?

Any chance it is from the Danville warriors? They are a minor league team out of Illinois

Adam, I just found this example as well. The team name is a bit different on the sizing, but might be from the same team: https://www.google.com/search?q=dan...=isch&q=warriors+baseball+flannel+home+jersey

That lead me to this: https://bulldogvintage.files.wordpress.com/2012/03/dsc06056_001.jpg

And that's just too similar to not be the same team. TOo bad that page has no actual info!

They were the Warriors from 70 to 74, and this set could be from as late as that.

My bad, I meant to give you the direct link to that jersey Yes VERY familiar looking along with yours, plus that would be an away jersey with yours as a home jersey or vise versa. The slow check offs are coming, there has to be something on the internet haha!

I searched the tag Rawlings Hall of Fame Flannel and I came up with a possible time frame for the jersey...an auction for a 1955 St Louis Cardinals jersey: http://sports.mearsonlineauctions.com/1955_st__louis_cardinals_blank_flannel_jersey-lot65963.aspx.

Does the shape of that tag change by year or would it cover any range of years, though?

And yes, Jeff... there are DEFINITELY A-holes.

I think I read somewhere that Rawlings started using that tag in 1952. I have also seen jerseys from the 1960s with the same tag so that would make it cover a range of years from 1952 to mid to late 1960s.
