Brock G.Thanks for the help Jimmy and Mark. My best guess is 1929 but its safe to say I was less than scientific in coming up with that hypothesis. Looking really closely at where the "D" should be you can see remnants of what appears to be orange stitching. The 29 jersey had orange around the navy D so that was my first clue, but not iron-clad by any means. The Halper auction had Harry Heilmann's '28 Tigers raod jersey which was also made by Horace Partridge. So between those two bits of evidence, I deduced 1929.
The Halper auction also had a 1929 Tigers home jersey. The home jersey does not have blue piping. Mark, can you refrence Okkonen's book and see what he has for the '29 Tigers home jersey? Thanks
