Vancouver Mounties Retro Jersey-info please
 
2 Attachment(s)
I'm glad this isn't the Rangers. I picked up this jersey some ten years ago, just have a couple of questions. It is Ebbetts Field Flannels, a little research told me it has to be post 1988. The chap I got it from provided the story that the Vancouver Canadians (PCL, 1987-1999) had a retro night and this was from that game. So my questions are, can anyone verify that info, and if so, might someone by chance know who would have worn #13 in that game from a program of the day? Some big players went through that team over the years, Sosa, Swisher, Harden, etc. It would be very "nice to know info".......thanks for any help.

Just add, this would have been the uniform of the day back around '66 or so, and I remember catcher Woody Huyke wore that 13 at the time.

The AAA C's did a throwback with EFF flannels of the Beavers but I don't know about the Mounties. not sure who is still around, but I'll ask Dan Roberge who I believe was there for the end of AAA.

Max will no doubt track down if the C's wore this style in a throwback game but I believe that it was just a style that Ebbets offered from their Seattle and online store. I had one exactly like this with the same number a few years ago and sold it on Ebay.

Thanks Chris, I have faith in Max.......he's Da Man for this stuff. I checked the EFF website, and there was nothing close....doesn't mean there didn't use to be of course.
