I sent Mitchell & Ness an email asking about my jersey when I saw this post it took a few days but I did get an answer back and they said that it does look like one of their jerseys that they made. We had about three email back and fourth and I never got his answer the first time but I finally did and I will show his name and contact info. I will post question and answer below.
Subject:: Authenticity Question
Question:: Hello, I went to an autograph show in Edison, NJ on May 19, 2002 and purchased a John Riggins 1982 Mitchell & Ness jersey when I was their to be autographed. I was told at the time that the promotor of
the show put a special order in with your company for the jerseys, can
you please let me know if this jersey was made by your company? I have recently put photos of the jersey on a forum that I belong to and a comment was made that the jersey is a knock off and not a true Mitchell & Ness jersey. It is missing the players name next to the year and the label does not say Nostalgia Co. Thank you for your help.
Answer: Already responded, it looks to be our jersey but we do not do anything
as far as verfication of signatures.
