Obviously same sweater. Damn I'm now starting to get disgusted with repro sweaters, baseballs etc. Only going to get worse.

While I cannot opine on this sweater, I own a 1914-1916 Harry Hooper sweater with name in the collar and provenance from the family. I of course could have a bad sweater, but the one I have is from a local label and not Spaulding or Wright & Ditson.

Guys, I spoke to this person on the phone for 30'ish minutes. There is no issue in my mind with her getting it at an estate sale. That being said I am sure it will be authenticated, or not, soon.

I don't think anyone is attributing mal-action or mal-intent to the lady. just a question of whether she happened to purchase a period professional piece. And IF a repro, there is no indication that whoever created it, had bad intentions either.
I see an equal chance of it being period and professional versus not, not having it in-hand. Last edited by BigJJ; 09-11-2013 at 11:27 PM. |

I can't offer any opinions on the Red Sox sweater, but I have a 1927 sweater from Andy Aitkenhead's estate that "looks too new"

No, Max. Actually your sweater doesn't look "too new." It looks old.
