With the crooked 4 on the back should be an easy match if you can find a photo shot of the back.

In trying to find a photo it was interesting to see that some players had a different combination style on there helmet. Wondering if some were used helmets that players brought with them and the Molina Style liike this one was a new helmet just for the all star game

Here are 3 Cardinal helmets too bad yadi's is turning away.

Mears states the following:

Since the helmets were experimental, they were brought to the game by the manufacturer. Each helmet was set in front of the players locker for them to use if desired. Some were tried on, some were worn for a short period of time, some for an extended period of time, and may never have been worn at all. But, they were all issued for each player on the all star roster.

After the game, they were gathered with permission by a major league employee, saved until this year, and now they appear in our auction. Each helmet is 100% guaranteed authentic, and there was only one made for each player.

Watched the video. No shots of the back of the helmet.

Looks like some helmets are back on MEARS this month along with a few new ones? Anyone know why some, like Swisher, are back? Also, did anyone find out from MEARS why some were listed last month as game used while others as game issued?
thanks

They are back because they did not meet the reserve and are being re-listed with a lower reserve.
