This 1982 Royals road knit (Mike Armstrong) is up on eBay currently:http://i45.photobucket.com/albums/f81/scooter0729/030a.jpg (http://s45.photobucket.com/albums/f81/scooter0729/?action=view¤t=030a.jpg)
I have no issues with the jersey's authenticity, but it IS interesting to note that the collar Wilson label (1982 jersey, remember), is the design used in 1974-78:

This longer-term tag carryover is not uncommon with, say, Russell, but for Wilson, 4 years is highly unusual, though OK in this instance.
