Jersey oddities

So I thought people could put here the abnormalities in jerseys, for example different material or no nameplates, for teams in a certain time. This would really help when trying to make jerseys 100% accurate.

I only can come up with the Jets using twill nameplates in the 90s, Red Wings and Kings not using them and the Penguins using screened/heat sealed logos/names/numbers in the late 80s. I don't know the specific time periods, so somebody could fill in the information.

I don't know if there's that many of these oddities, but there's at least a few of them, and gathering that information into one place will certainly help noobs like me in this hobby. :)

I'd read that book.

That would be a brilliant idea. There should be more books about jerseys. The only book I know of, and own, is the HHOF Book Of Jerseys. Love it.

When it's done, lol.

Two more chapters...though, I keep revisiting/updating/making it more detailed, so at this point, perhaps never.

Hoping within the next month I'll have 'er ready for print.

Exactly.

If I was Sam Raimi, I'd feature him in my next slasher movie.

Will it be team by team based?

An intro, a guide, and then team by team chapters.

Whalers example -

Large pic(s) first page, short team intro 2nd page, year by year evolution, greyed-out player write-ups along the way, and ending with a quick-guide table...is the basic formula.

Will have some pages for evolution only -

Some for evolution and player -

And sometimes two pages for 1 player (when warranted) -

Lemieux's getting 17 pages :D

Ok, back to work.

Sorry for the tease, oh, and for highjacking this thread, but hopefully I'll have this thing ready sooner than later and we can all share :)

It is very thorough and includes everything during that time period, including the full evolution of the All Star jersey, and even touches briefly on the Super Series and minor leagues.

Now, no more teasers...you'll just have to wait 'til she's done :)
