Can anyone lend a hand with some of these "authenticating"/LOA companies regarding the respective auction lot jerseys?
1: Lot 217: 2005 Albert Pujols Game Used St. Louis Cardinals Jersey
"This is a gray button-front St. Louis Cardinals road jersey worn by superstar slugger Albert Pujols during the 2005 baseball season. The jersey features the Cardinals' logo across the front, Pujol's nameplate sewn on the back, and his number 5 on both the front and back. There is a Busch Stadium Final Season patch on the left sleeve. A Majestic label is sewn on the front left tail above a size 50 hang tag; there is a 0062 wash tag inside the left seam. The jersey shows moderate use and comes with an Authentic Gamers LOA."
2: Lot 947: 1980s Magic Johnson Los Angeles Lakers Game Used Jersey
"With Earvin "Magic" Johnson on the roster, the Los Angeles Lakers won five NBA titles and provided their fans with countless happy hoops memories. This Lakers road jersey was worn by basketball legend Magic Johnson circa 1985-86. It has been linked to that period because the numbers on it lack the white indentations at the tops of the "3" and "2" that were found on earlier Lakers jerseys of that decade. The yellow jersey has purple and white trim on the collar and shoulder yokes. Johnson's name is stitched on the back above his number 32, which also appears on the front center below the team name. There is a "Tiernan Glendale, Calif." label sewn on the middle of the front tail. This is a quality game-worn collectible from one of basketball's most memorable players. Comes with LOA."
I emailed about the LOA and here's what they say it is/says:
"The LOA is from www.100percentauthentic.com (http://www.100percentauthentic.com/)
It says "100% Authentic Memorabilia Authentication Services", and has been signed by a member of their team.
The info on the LOA about the jersey reads,
"Magic Johnson was the perfect candidate to run Showtime. His vast array of passes, his passion for the game, and overall excitement humor glitzy Los Angeles to a tee. When Magic called Los Angeles home, the Lakes won five NBA titles and provided countless memories for hoops fanatics. This road jersey was worn by Magic circa 1985-86. This may be linked to that period because the jersey doesn't have the white indentations at the top of the "3" and "2". (By the mid '80's, that style had been abandoned). The numerals are crafted in two-color drop-shadow tackle twill. This was a staple in Lakers games for decades. White/purple/white braiding surrounds the collar and shoulder yokes. "JOHNSON" is arched above the verso numerals. A Tiernan (Glendale) Calif. manufacturer's label is sewn into the middle of the tail. Overall, a quality representation from one of the NBA's most electrifying personalities"."
Never heard of 100% Authentic??? :cool:
