I think being able to photo match an item is great for the item and confidence in it. But I'm not really sure how you can do that when so much time has passed. Photo matching damage or consistencies in the jersey after nearly 100 years seems like it's too open ended. Damage could be consistent or it could be coincidental and the product of looking for clues in the item as opposed to being objective.

Just my opinion of course. When it comes to these kinds of items I'm more interested in provenance than a photo match.
