    Bob Gibson???? ROTFL

    Grey Flannel is calling this a Bob Gibson 1981 Coach's jacket.

    The Mets started wearing this type jacket in 1984. It is surely a Paul Gibson 1992-3 Mets Starter jacket. Amazing that he also wore 45! This hobby is maddening.

    Cool find.

    Did you notify Grey Flannel of the error? I'm sure they will be embarrassed but they will correct it.

    I sent them an email...let's see what happens.

    I love these jackets, but this one is worth about $100...they should send it to me for free for saving them the shame of auctioning it.

    They were very nice about it and took it off the website.

    If only they'd been as responsible regarding that phony Don Meredith jersey a few auctions back. When I emailed my concerns, two guys called me back and proceeded to harangue me for 20 minutes--warning me not to interfere with the auction or knock them on this site.

    Wow. I feel bad for the consigner thinking he had a Bob Gibson jacket and it turns out to be Paul's. What are the odds of two guys with the same last name wearing the same number in the same decade? Crazy.

    Here's another embarrassment for them:

    A CIRCA 1980's Twins Rod Carew cap. Carew's last year as a Twin was 1978.

    Can't they do even basic research on these items?
