mdwsta4 Posted February 18, 2016 Report Share Posted February 18, 2016 Got my patches in the mail today. Pretty quick turn around time. That said, I'm slightly concerned (disappointed?) about the patches compared to what I already have. Here's one patch on a Kings jersey. Not a crazy difference, but the new one received today looks slightly, and I do mean slightly, better On the other hand, the one I have on a TBTC Hawks jersey looks 100x better than the new one! I guess for the sake of authenticity it's nice to have these originals, but I don't think I'll be replacing what's already on my jerseys anytime soon. Guess I'll just tuck these patches away for a rainy day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LAK74 Posted February 18, 2016 Report Share Posted February 18, 2016 The one that's already on the Kings jersey looks like it IS an original. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chow_hound Posted February 18, 2016 Report Share Posted February 18, 2016 Id swap out the Hawks as its a repro and leave the kings which is already legit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mdwsta4 Posted February 19, 2016 Report Share Posted February 19, 2016 Huh. Interesting. Both the 75th patch and 25th patch on the Kings jersey were purchased on the 'Bay for cheap! The one that's already on the Kings jersey looks like it IS an original. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LAK74 Posted February 19, 2016 Report Share Posted February 19, 2016 Did you get an original 25th? Those aren't that easy to find. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slimcutta Posted February 19, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 19, 2016 Yup, the one on the Hawks is a repro. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mdwsta4 Posted February 19, 2016 Report Share Posted February 19, 2016 (edited) I doubt it. Did you get an original 25th? Those aren't that easy to find. Edit, here's the patch: Edited February 19, 2016 by mdwsta4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mfitz804 Posted February 19, 2016 Report Share Posted February 19, 2016 How many of us bought the 75th anniversary patches with absolutely no jerseys to put them on? I bought mine "just in case", with no prospects of ever being on a jersey anytime soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeM7392 Posted February 19, 2016 Report Share Posted February 19, 2016 Same. I have eventual plans for at least one but who knows when I'll find the right jersey for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
furiousd Posted February 19, 2016 Report Share Posted February 19, 2016 I had plans for the two I bought, but now I'm thinking of getting a couple more to replace repros. I think my Hawks barberpole deserves it, at least. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tazer19 Posted February 19, 2016 Report Share Posted February 19, 2016 I sent two emails to the guy and he never responded :-( So if any member has a couple they want to let go I would love to have 2 or 3.... Thanks guys... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dsl135 Posted February 19, 2016 Report Share Posted February 19, 2016 I didn't have any plans for a jersey either, and bought two "just in case" after hearing how rare they are. Tazer, they're still on eBay. http://www.ebay.com/itm/OFFICIAL-NHL-75th-ANNIVERSARY-Jersey-Patch-1991-Collectible-Hockey-/322002963522?

LAK74 Posted February 19, 2016 Report Share Posted February 19, 2016 (edited) I doubt it. Edit, here's the patch: It's a good one!! (Well, as long as the white part is fuzzy, like smooth felt.) Looks like you got 2 originals on that 91/92 Kings- well done! Hey, is that a Monarchs' Burger King gamer in the background?

thebiggoalie Posted February 19, 2016 Report Share Posted February 19, 2016 I have a friend that lives in Pensacola. I wonder if the guy has a physical store that my buddy could walk into and fill a shoebox for us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mdwsta4 Posted February 21, 2016 Report Share Posted February 21, 2016 No $hit?! I honestly had no idea. I just remember doing as much photo matching as I could and stumbled upon both of these. Sadly the jersey is a total foul as the sleeve numbers are for the 92/93 season so the patches shouldn't be on the it. I'm simply not a fan of the sleeve numbers or name outline in 91/92 and couldn't be bothered to strip this otherwise good jersey. I just wanted the patches and something to wear to Kings games. Plus most people at Staples Center couldn't tell the difference anyway so whatever. http://images51.fotki.com/v278/photos/1/51621/9409627/DSCF3455-vi.jpg Good eye! Yeah, it's a Brian O'Neill from when the Monarchs auctioned the Burger Kings off a few years back. http://images14.fotki.com/v380/photos/1/51621/9409627/DSCF3460-vi.jpg http://images15.fotki.com/v1626/photos/1/51621/9409627/DSCF3464-vi.jpg It's a good one!!

jsh139 Posted February 24, 2016 Report Share Posted February 24, 2016 Bought two. Might just turn my 90-91 Hexy into a 91-92 if I can find a Flyers 25th or Spectrum all star patch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But, there's really no substitute for an original. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
