Really very pleased to get this 97/98, Set 1, Tony Twist Blues jersey.

I got it from Meigray, after asking for a little advice from Bert. I remembered he’d posted that it was possible to make Meigray an offer for certain jerseys so I phoned them and was told that the Twist jersey was a consignment item (i.e. Meigray were selling it on behalf of somebody) and couldn’t offer a deal. But then the Meigray representative said he would telephone the owner with my offer and put me on hold – offer accepted! It was really quick and I received the jersey within a week.

The jersey had been on the site for ages and I kept checking in and looking at it wondering if it would ever end up in my collection. After selling a few cards and doing pretty well out of the sales I thought I would try my luck.

There is some really nice wear on this one, anyway – enough “Tell”, more “Show”. I will let the pictures do the talking;

Inner Tags. In the first photo it looks like the number 93 has been written onto the lower part of the “note”, any idea why? Could it be re-used? Not sure this would be the case on a Set 1 jersey.

Fight Strap… of course!

Arms, love the wear on the second photo;

So there it is – very, very happy to get a Twister in my small (but hopefully ever growing) collection of enforcer gamers.

There was some talk on another game-worn site that questioned the Probie, but with the blood stains it shouldn't be too hard to photo match - there was also question marks raised about the letters accompanying the jersey.

Im staying away from it, mainly because I already have a Probert gamer and I'd rather spend money on guys I dont have in my collection. Plus the questions being raised about the letters.

That is an awesome jersey; who else do you have for gamers??

Thanks for the S&T! Loved the story almost as much as the photos.
 
I thought of you when I saw that the Twist sold.

I think you should go out and get a Hordichuk and Smacintyre jerseys now. (I just bought a Hordi)
