So yes, you never know where one might pop up.

The chairman of the Pittsburgh area chapter of SABR has offered to forward the story to their membership. We'll see.

John - That's cool. Best of Luck in your search. I imagine one of those jersey's has survived as well as a cap.

Just having the pic from the paper is pretty darn cool.

Season's Greetings & Bump...
I've checked with several libraries and museums, but nothing.
I'm hoping someone on the board can help.

Once every seven months seems a bit excessive . You got my hopes up that'd you'd found one. Might sound silly, but I'd add your name to the title to increase the chances of someone doing research on a jersey finding your post.
