Man, by the time this thread has run its course, and you have all the needed info, all 6 of the throwbacks are gonna be sold, and I'm gonna have to laugh.

Good luck with the decision though.

Yes

Most the time Cardinal jerseys are the most expensive due to the amount of stitches required for the logo but most these throw backs have a ton of stitches. It's also made out of the same material and is identical to the original. only cheap ones are the 1890 - 1930 jerseys. no names and most don't have numbers

I understand if you collect, but wearing that **** to anywhere other than a game is just asking for people make fun of/think less of you. Could be wrong, but who knows..

so your profiling anyone wearing a jersey as low class and uneducated. if i were worried what others thought about i'd sport what every the cool people are wearing. i have no problem with that, those are the exact people the kind of i don't like or hang out with any ways

i use to DJ, i know plenty about dress codes and wouldn't wear it to club. Not that i like going to those places anymore anyways because you ruin your nice stuff by getting it fogged in cigarette smoke. But surprisingly i'm smart enough to know whats proper atire for specific occasions, events and establishments.

it will get worn to games maybe a car meet but first chance i get it's getting signed and framed.
