Memories from the colorful "Polyester Pullover Era" of baseball!
Memories from the colorful "Polyester Pullover Era" of baseball!
League by League, Team by team, year by year, database of MLB uniforms from the 1970s...
Vintage Jerseys & Hats is in the business of collecting memories. We do not believe that the value of a collection is in resale. It is in the memories that it brings up. So, we are here to share these memories through photos, stories, and tweets about all our favorite things. Sure, our main focus is on baseball from the 1970's and 80's (or as we like to call it, the "Polyester Pullover Era"). But, we are not tied to just this one segment. If it is awesome, we want to share it.
A quick note on pricing in the #VJHcollection / Shop: The collection is meant as a gallery for visitors to browse all the cool stuff I collect, but all items technically have listed prices. If the price seems really high, it's probably an item that I don't want to sell. If you are looking to purchase something, click on the "For Sale" button on the top left of the store categories. This is where the more reasonably priced items will be located. And keep checking back: I will be adding more items from the collection daily...
We know that there are a lot of people out there that miss the colorful days of the Polyester Pullover era in sports. Our goal is to bring as much of that feeling to our website and Twitter feed as possible. Some of our favorite hashtags include... #PowderBlue #PolyesterPullover #TequilaSunrise #StripedStirrups #Sansabelt #BullpenFacialHair #PinwheelHat #BellHat #PillboxHat #RacingStripes #BobRoss #Airbrush #SundaySwinginSeventiesLogos #ColorExplosion. And, there's plenty more where these came from. If you have a memory from the era and want us to remember it in a tweet, article, or design, let us know. We might just take you up on it.
You may notice that we are all about the "color explosion." From time to time, one of our followers may think what we like is "awful," "ugly," "terrible," "garish," or some other negative word. That's when you'll see us pull out our favorite response: "You spelled Awesome wrong." There's no such thing as "too bright," "too colorful," or "too busy."
