Can't forget my Ed Charles '68 jersey ( "40 68 5" in Collar - Size 40, 1968, #5 which was Ed Charles number )which was recycled by the Mets and worn by Tim Foli in '70 and '71.....Direct photo match below....also have a direct photo match of Charles wearing the jersey in '68 before the #5 was replaced...

Great Flannel’s Mike

Love the way you display them

Great stuff everyone. Was recently able to photo match my 66 tommy harper reds vest.

Love the Harper!

Same here… classic and beautiful Vest Jersey of an excellent player. Wish he could’ve stayed a Red for longer. Great one, Chris!

I’ll try to post some of mine later in the week… awesome thread!

Amazing stuff on this thread! :eek:

Great flannels!

Early 20th century Lebanon Bethlehem Steel.

Ok - so this is crazy nice…..incredible piece - never sell that!

1971 San Francisco Giants George Foster Road Jersey
 

Here is one of my flannels.
GO GIANTS!

Ray Berres lived 10 minutes away from me and I was able to talk baseball with him several times. He had a few old hats and some other memorabilia but I do not remember him having any flannels. It is so cool to see this.

I know some of his relatives who will be thrilled to know this is out there.

Flannels are about as cool as it gets in the hobby. I hope this thread keeps on rolling.

Even my wife and friends think this story is cool and they don't collect. I was at dealer Dave Bushing's house about 25 years ago to pick up a jersey from him and he let me check out this amazing piece of history. It was a 1947 Jackie Robinson jersey that he was selling to a client for 25K. It's not too often you get to hold a major piece of history. I'm guessing it's worth a few million these days.

Here's the last two flannels in my collection. I sold all my others, but I couldn't part with these.

Gorgeous….stunning…

White Sox Flannels

Few more, if you don't mind a sore neck...

Lovely…..!!

AMAZING collection Mark!

Hey Mark...Great collection, thanks for sharing.

Mark, I'm always humbled by your astonishing collection. Here's a few of my favorite flannels from the boondocks of baseball. I can't resist a great looking old jersey, regardless how obscure the team was that wore it. I can't tell you much about any of these teams, but if you have any information to share, I'd love to hear it.

Chris - those are awesome!

Those are BEAUTIFUL, Chris!

Such stylish examples from Baseball's Golden Age. Especially love the INCAS Jersey. Great stuff!

Mark.....Those are absolutely gorgeous .....Thanks for taking the time to share all those...

Chris.....I agree ...the older obscure uniforms are wonderful...

I have some that I will share soon...Stay turned....

This is an interesting and fun thread....

My two favorites.

Just gorgeous….

Thanks Jim I really enjoy looking at them.

Pacific Coast League
 

What a great thread. Enjoying seeing all of this fantastic flannel.

I'll pitch in with some PCL shirts, etc:

1939 Sacramento Solons
1941 LA Angels
1945 San Diego Padres (which needs a Woolite bath)

Off the charts beautiful. That was my year, and he was my guy! I was a 12-year-old Joe Boyd, and he was Joe Hardy. Not to mention, it's real-life footage of Roy hitting a home run that wins the pennant for the Nats at the end of the movie "Damn Yankees." (Wearing this jersey, maybe?)

Thanks Hank! That’s amazing info. I will need to re-watch Damn Yankees! in its entirety soon. Such a great take on “Faust” and one of my Dad’s very favorites. He grew up in DC and hated the Yankees with a passion. He was also an accomplished musician, so the film really resonated with him.

Can’t wait to see the real-life Sievers Homer. Ya gotta have heart!
