tbart Posted March 3, 2016 Report Share Posted March 3, 2016 Does anyone know what year the Rangers offset the layer of twill on the sleeve numbers, giving it a 3D effect? The back numbers were always offset but the sleeve numbers were just the basic red with white trim. Not sure if it was 80, 81 or 82. Looking to customize a Stall & Dean/Cosby road jersey. Already has the numbers and looking to add the name. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brilliant! Posted March 3, 2016 Report Share Posted March 3, 2016 I believe....BELIEVE that 1979-80 wad the first yar of the new arm numbers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thebiggoalie Posted March 3, 2016 Report Share Posted March 3, 2016 I'm looking at this crappy book with all this useless information about hockey jerseys in it, and it only goes back to jerseys from 1983. The Hedberg pictured in it has the offset shadow numbers, but it's from 1984. What a useless piece of literature! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thebiggoalie Posted March 3, 2016 Report Share Posted March 3, 2016 Best bet I could recommend is to just keep doing a photo search of him playing. So far, I've only found the 3D sleeves on him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tbart Posted March 3, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 3, 2016 Got what I was looking for. Youtube has game 5 of the 1979 finals. Hedberg with the non-3D sleeve numbers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brilliant! Posted March 3, 2016 Report Share Posted March 3, 2016 You could have just asked whether or not they used that style in the 1979 Finals and I would have given the answer. But NOOOOOOOOOOO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
