Yes, I think you're right. I figured Heritage had a reason for limiting the years to 1923-24. The lettering is navy blue.

It's interesting that in some colorized photos, the jersey is shown with light blue lettering. Other existing jerseys from this period do have light blue GIANTS. I think that's because those shirts have significant fading, while the jersey in hand has very little fading. It does make me wonder, if my shirt was significantly faded, what color would the pinstripes appear to be? Would the blue fade out leaving the red, or visa-versa?
