Strange patch - tate31nym - 04-08-2014 Does this look weird to anyone else? http://www.ebay.com/itm/2005-Topps-Chrome-the-Game-Mike-Piazza-5-Color-PATCH-Jersey-Relic-Card-/111322141164?&_trksid=p2056016.m2518.l4276 What part of the jersey would this be from? My first thought was that it said "dodgers" but that would be even stranger. RE: Strange patch - jacobystealshome - 04-08-2014 if it is real: it is some kinf of commemorative patch (and it wouldnt be strange if it came from a dodgers uni, as topps always put old jerseys of player with new team photos) dont see anything on mets patches from 2000-2004 that matches up. so maybe dodgers, or all-star not an all-star game patch eother RE: Strange patch - petillo64 - 04-08-2014 Personally, I'd look at cards from the same set and see if there is anything similar... Topps will use anything for the "GU" label... Including florescent orange crossing guard pennies, that someone used to walk Piazza's kids across the street one day to allow his kids to get to school safely, and therefor allow him to play a professional baseball game. Maybe this was from an "American Crossing Guards" jersey? It does look suspicious. And I wouldn't pay too much of a premium over what a non-5-color would ask for. RE: Strange patch - jacobystealshome - 04-08-2014 i know i recognize that patch from somewhere RE: Strange patch - tate31nym - 04-08-2014 It appears legit, just unusual. A bit out of my price range for a standard GU, it just popped up on my eBay homescreen today and I thought I'd get some thoughts. RE: Strange patch - michaelstepper - 04-08-2014 Looks like a piece of a World Series patch..

'ERI' from SERIES RE: Strange patch - jacobystealshome - 04-08-2014 <img src="http://republicjewelry.com/images/world_series_2001_400_pixel.jpg"> you have bingo but that is problematic: 2001 was dbacks and yanks, teams piazza didnt play for (which is why i ddnt look at that patch) since it is 2001, the card is absolutely...FAKE RE: Strange patch - krn001 - 04-08-2014 No other card like that has anything other than either a piece of a uniform or bat veneer. Seller doesn't describe the card & looks scuffed on the surface. |
