Brilliant! Posted February 5, 2010 Report Share Posted February 5, 2010 NICE Coffey jersey! That's a real beauty there. Not a stain on it either. That OxyClean really works wonders. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brilliant! Posted February 5, 2010 Report Share Posted February 5, 2010 Well, it finally found me. The one us Rangers fans look for above all others: The patch matches up and the Cosby's stamp inside matches up too. It was advertised as an issued jersey when I bought it. The guy actually just messaged me back and says it came from Barry Meisel himself back in the mid-90's. Now, I don't want to jump the gun here but I have found two spots on the jersey that COULD be board burns and/or paint transfer. If this is what I think it is, I could probably just stop collecting right now. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. D Posted February 5, 2010 Report Share Posted February 5, 2010 "And this one will last a lifetime." Seriously, talk about Holy Grails. Well done, Mike. Oh, and thanks for making my 94 Cup patch picture in my signature look like crap in comparison! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DerbyCoyote Posted February 5, 2010 Report Share Posted February 5, 2010 Superb pick up, was this what that sale was in aid of the other day? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

akteon Posted February 5, 2010 Report Share Posted February 5, 2010 Brilliant - just be glad that seller didn't get back to me with close ups of the patch, or you would have to have paid atleast twice what you did Seriously that's an epic pick up man. Seeing the patch now, I have no doubts about it's authenticity. From my research here's the proof from two verified '94 cup jerseys: Karpotsev '94 SC gamer sold at auction Hirsch '94 SC game-issue Congrats man!

Brilliant! Posted February 5, 2010 Report Share Posted February 5, 2010 Thanks guys. This is beyong anything I've ever had before and maybe bigger than anything I WILL ever get...unless I manage to pry that Leetch Cup gamer away from Barry Meisel but I don't think that's gonna happen! And yes, this is why I unloaded so many of my others last week. Well worth the price of a few authentics in my book! And I just heard back from the guy who I bought it from and he said that his company obtained it directly fom Barry Meisel back in the mid-90's and that it may very well have been worn in the Finals. I have to contact Barry about it but nevertheless, this baby is the real deal! WOO-HOO!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
irishlaxburger2 Posted February 5, 2010 Report Share Posted February 5, 2010 Absolutely ridiculous pick-up, Mike! If that thing is a gamer...geez...I don't even know what to say. You try to contact Barry about it yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brilliant! Posted February 5, 2010 Report Share Posted February 5, 2010 I just shot him off an e-mail so I just have to play the waiting game now. Like D said, the differences in the gamer and replica eBay patches is really something. When you look closely, they're not even CLOSE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xcdude Posted February 5, 2010 Report Share Posted February 5, 2010 I just shot him off an e-mail so I just have to play the waiting game now.Like D said, the differences in the gamer and replica eBay patches is really something. When you look closely, they're not even CLOSE. SOOOOO true. Damnit Brilliant! I might have a pretty sweet one coming in my opinion (which you have seen), but I mean this just takes the cake. I honestly can't believe I'm even seeing pictures of that beauty. All I can see is him, without a helmet, cross-checking a 'Nucks player to win the Cup :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burnaby Joe Sakic Posted February 6, 2010 Report Share Posted February 6, 2010 All there is to say is wow Mike. Awesome! I can imagine how you feel because I'd feel that same way if I ever was able to find a 1996 or 2001 Avs Stanley Cup gamer or issue. Not quite sure if you can do better than that. Congrats on a great pickup. Happy it's in the right hands too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AeroFishOne Posted February 6, 2010 Report Share Posted February 6, 2010 Got it just in time for the trade today. Paid $30 shipped for it and I still paid more than the Devils did to get Kovalchuk. Alittle late but nice pickup Guam. I just got one in a 48 the other week. It really is a nice jersey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaNoobie Posted February 6, 2010 Report Share Posted February 6, 2010 ^ I picked up a 52 for a great price too! Still coming in the mail along with like 5 others. Will have to make one big post when they get here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JeffB Posted February 6, 2010 Report Share Posted February 6, 2010 Great pickup on the Rangers jersey. To say that's bigger than some of your other really excellent jerseys is truly saying something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was eyeing the one that you ended up with, I would have gone for it if it wasn't for a high shipping price and I wasn't really desperate for this particular jersey. At $30 though I couldn't pass it up and it really does look much nice in person than in the pictures. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brilliant! Posted February 7, 2010 Report Share Posted February 7, 2010 Awesome. Two dynamite pick-ups there. That LaFontaine is gorgeous BUT he didn't wear the C that year; Mogilny did. Still great-looking nonetheless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sluggermatt15 Posted February 7, 2010 Report Share Posted February 7, 2010 Yeah, nice pickups. Love the vintage Sabres. Classic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brilliant! Posted February 7, 2010 Report Share Posted February 7, 2010 Oh hang on a minute, I guess LaFontaine did in fact wear the C when he came back from injury that year. Nevermind my earlier statement. You're good to go! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
irishlaxburger2 Posted February 7, 2010 Report Share Posted February 7, 2010 Not really sure where to put this post but since Brilliant posted that 1994 SCF Rangers team issue in here I figured this would do. There were only a couple known 94 gamers out there. I think I just found another one. Already sold. Link Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
