Peyton Manning Grail Acquired Thanks to Brian Bayne and Panini Authentic

[RKO18]

I'd like to extend my thanks to Brian Bayne and Panini Authentic for helping me acquire what I consider to be the finest and most historically significant Peyton Manning gamer to exist outside of the Pro Football Hall of Fame. Had the Broncos defeated the Colts, that's probably where this jersey would be right now. It is unwashed and 100% photo matched.

Worn by Peyton Manning on October 20th, 2013 @ the Indianapolis Colts on Sunday Night Football.

Peyton led the NFL in Week 7 with 386 passing yards and 3 touchdowns against his former team.

Photo matches include the Captain's patch, the stain to the lower left of the front number '1' and the stain on the upper-right of the back number '8'.

I cannot thank Brian enough for making this incredible piece of history available to me and for his fantastic customer service every step of the way.

Thanks to everyone for all of the kind words.

I've studied the Peyton Manning game worn market closely and have never seen a jersey quite like this one. To me, it's one of the five most important jerseys Peyton has ever worn.

His first career Colts jersey, his 2006 AFC Championship jersey and his two Super Bowl jerseys are the other four that come to mind.

Great jersey. I hate to think of what it cost you... if its less 20 grand I would be surprised, although I know nothing about NFL gamers.

Congrats on a great find.

My jersey was worn during the Colts' tribute to Manning and during the first half of the game. He's wearing a different jersey in the photo you posted of him with Andrew Luck.

I couldn't agree more. :)

this the most historic over his super bowl game winning jersey?? Oh you said outside of hall of fame :D

Just messing. God Peyton jerseys with Orange captain patches are so beautiful. Love that Broncs rock the orange patch on white jersey and not the Navy like previous years. Really cool factor cause of how it pops. Its like the Aqua patch on my phins white jerseys. Hate when some teams use the dark colors on the white jerseys like how the Lions use black instead of blue on them. YucK!

[supbullcoc]

killer pick, that is amazing

Recently, I found additional photo-matches for my Manning jersey. The stain to the left of the front number '1' is instantly recognizable.

Below is a photo of Manning being hit by Robert Mathis.

The next image is from a Beckett magazine ranking the top players in the NFL today -- Manning ranking #1.

The photo is from the pre-game tribute to Manning's career with the Colts.

I had a little fun today learning how to use Mac Preview's tools to highlight photo-matches...
