Help Identifying Possible Black Yankees Jersey

[perezfan]

The biggest potential difference I see (between your jersey and the one worn by Griffith) is the front button panel. I wish I could blow up the photo more, and with higher resolution...

But it appears that the button panel on your jersey terminates in a "point" just below the 5th Button. Looks like the "point" is less than 2" below the bottom button... perhaps more like 1.5 inches.

I cannot see any evidence of the pointed area in the East-West Photo. It looks like this area is just flat (with no point evident) and a good 4-5 inches of material showing below Griffith's 5th button.

I could be wrong, as the photo is not as clear or as large as would be ideal. But perhaps you can tell with the photo in-hand. Hope this is helpful.

Thanks perezfan, that is a helpful analysis, I think your right on the point termination, though its close and I had not thought to look at that detail. Additional photos might help.

Another thing I forgot to point out is the lettering is in a navy blue and not black.

Also, the letters appear to be further apart and have a steeper arc on the uniform in the E-W photo as opposed to your jersey. The jerseys are similar, but I don't think they are the same. Still, a nice, vintage jersey.

I see what you are saying Joe Hunter.

The lettering seems particularly close on the second E and S in the all-star image.

Here's the full picture.

There is another Yankees uniform in the shot and the buttons actually look black, I had not previously seen the full image.
