I have been searching the internet every once and a while for like 4 years looking for an image of these things.

Here is all ive ever been able to find for reference...



I can find plenty of the "Tigers" variety as seen below




But not one single full shot of the "Louisiana State" ones.


Ive exhausted all resources (aka i got tired of scrolling through Google Image search and Bing Image search) and thought "one of the TD old timers probably has a scrap book of personal pictures of these beauties.

Could someone do me (and all of us really) a favor and post some images for posterity?


ETA:

the purples are incredible too

I've seen a few, the most recent picture I've seen with it was Albert Belle, so maybe search for him.

ETA: It's easily the best jersey and it needs to come back in v-neck form.

I have the urge to watch Adam Sandler movies.

But, I think we've stumbled onto the solution. Google the names of guys on the roster between 85 and 87 like "Mike Papajon LSU" in GIS and you may get a hit. The rosters are still up on LSUsports.net I think.

Also, how terrible of a baseball card sponsor is the "Chemical Dependency Unit"?

That's how I'm going about it

Are they grey?

If so i have always assumed they were white from the headshots of Belle and McDonald that ive found.

Or in that picture is that a white on the left and a grey on the right?

When I was in college, they sold those hats in the Union Bookstore. I bought 2 or 3 over my time in college. I LOVED those hats.

I've looked for them for YEARS and have been unable to find any. They have that RETRO (see below) one with the white "L" from like the early 1900's. I would buy it but I hate the bill/brim and the structure.





I've also seen the Ebbets Field 1966 hat (see below). But, it's $50, not a fitted hatted, and the bill/brim looks off.

No, that was JOEY Belle. Albert came along after Joey was drafted by the Indians.

They’re grey. It’s the lighting and shading in the picture.

Even though that picture was taken at Alex Box.
