Before anyone says anything I did email the seller and waiting a response but I just noticed this jersey and it ends in less then 24 hours so there is not much time to get a response from the seller and I wanted to make sure people here were aware of the jerseys problems so I will not say this Jersey is fake I will let you be the judge and follow up with the sellers response to my questions.
1) The first thing thst stuck out to me was the name plate for a Strawberry jersey it is completely incorrect. It is using thisck font letter and while Strawberry was with the Mets and even other teams never used thick font for his last name.
2) In 1985 Gettys photos in early 85 Strawberry used a jersey that the front number 18 does not match up the the one been sold.
Jersey shows it being a set 1 so would most likelt would have been the one he would have used during the early part of the season - I am not saying it is impossible you may have used a different jersey during the early part of the season but it is just a red flag
3) The size is wrong - Strawberry did wear in early part of his career 42 BUT being that he is very tall always ordered his Jerseys with 2 inch length which this Jersey is missing.
I just realized another member here has spoken about this jersey in another thread just want to make sure everyone here sees the problems
