Navy Jacket

[Riverkilt]

My grandfather Murdoch, who used to play semi-pro in Montana, took me to a LOT of Portland Beavers ball games at the old Vaughn Street Ball Park back in the 1950's. I have a whole bunch of Ebbets Field Flannels Portland Beavers stuff from that era. Ahh, the innocence of youth preserved...memories of the good times.

On Ebbets:

I own one of their cotton "cheap" versions of a baseball jersey (Atlanta Crackers) and a set of their wool New York Knights (The Natural) jerseys and caps.
(I got each on major sale, 2 from Distant Replays in Atlanta and one direct in a special close-out. I paid less for all three than one jersey is normally.)
I'll say their quality is EXCELLENT. In how their prices compare to some of the modern jerseys, it isn't THAT bad. They try to make their's VERY accurate. The Knights jersey is wool flannel and even has the period-correct (film takes place in 1939) underarm gussets.

If one has the budget and enough desire for one of their items, I'd recommend them.

That jacket looks REAL nice.

(Now, I need to add a shot of me in one of my jerseys and a kilt. Which tartan looks best with navy and orange . . .)
