I bought an Eddie George Autographed Jersey a few months back. Since I have yet to frame it I left it in the bag it came in on the top shelf of my closet. Well I was looking at it today and the name plate seems to be yellowing. I keep my closet doors closed and the Ac is always on so I have no idea what's causing this or how to fix it. Anyone else have this happen to them?

The "ripening a banana in a bag" effect maybe???

Weird. Was it a Reebok jersey? I've got several, myself, ranging from a cheap Reggie White jersey from the 90s to a high end Reebok jersey of Favre from his time in GB in the 90s to a blue Tramon Williams throwback blue jersey, and I've not had any issues with the ones that have white lettering, whether it be printed like the White, or hand stitched like the Hawk jersey I have. I would say if you put it on a shelf in a closet that's closed to the light, you should at least be able to keep it from getting worse if it's the bag doing it? Maybe the chemicals from the signature coupled with the plastic bag and the fact that it's all trapped in the bag with the jersey may be what's causing it.

It was the top shelf of the closet. What's weird is that its just the Name Plate:


Hopefully it shows on these pics. I guess I can move it to a box

yeah the pic shows it, wierd. ive had that seam collect dust while hanging in the closet, but it looks like the fabric itself is yellowing. was the jsy folded in the bag with that side up? my wife said maybe it was the part touching the inside of bag the most because its thicker than the surrounding material. who knows maybe ya have a closet mouse that isnt a titans fan... before framing, try going over the yellow with a bleach pen LIGHTLY it might work on white. i havent a clue and have never heard of anyone doing that, it was just an idea. hope ya figure it out.
