All you TREND SETTERS remember when the THROWBACK Craze hit the streets everyone and they 3rd cousin wanted one. You also know the Retailer......MITCHELL and NESS Nostalgia Company in PHILADELPHIA P A.......on 1221 S. BROAD STREET 4th Floor PHILADELPHIA P A. Their Flagship Store is located at 1201 CHESTNUT Street CENTER CITY.....Philadelphia P A.

The BLUEDUDE 1st found out that they make Jerseys from teams way back in the early 1900's and up......MY WHEELS started spinning. My initial thought was the JERSEYS have to be pricey.....because we are talking BACK in the DAY......NOSTALGIC.

So found out they were about at n NFL Authentic PRICE or a COACH or BURBERRY BAG price........LADIES you all know your are compulsive shoppers. WE get the JORDACHE Jeans.....you get the PRADA and the JIMMY CHOO.......like the BLUEDUDE doesn't know. Wife works at a HIGH-END Fashion Forward Retailer......and they carry everything Women's and Mens except.....Mitchell & Ness Throwbacks.

I eventually put together a LIST of PLAYERS i wanted to get like MY STEEL CURTAIN......but then wondered...HOW MANY STEELERS do they make?......They have made a few of the GREATS like.......the LATE Great Center Mike WEBSTER, QB Terry BRADSHAW, DT Mean JOE GREENE, MLB Jack LAMBERT, and Franco HARRIS. But I wanted more......more and more.

Do they make a MICHAEL JORDAN Rookie with the cursive Chicago Writing.........how 'bout my AMAZINS' from '86 STRAW and DOC.....and the 1976-77 Philadelphia 76ERS.....Dr. J....Chocolate THUNDER.....BIBBY.....COLLINS......McGINNIS....World B. FREE....I wanted to know.

See the BLUEDUDE's MIND can go where others will never go.......REAL TALK.......you want sports......i will give you the make of most of these JERSEYS.....material make......TWITTERsmurf don't play......aka TERRIBLETOWELsmurf.

I will give you a brief list of what they have made or should run again and who they should make. If I remember all the Athletes they have made get ROYALTIES off the make of their JERSEYS and M&N has to sign these guys first to even think about making the jersey and how many.......Don't quote me on that but something to that extent.

Here is the list of some of the NFL M&N Throwbacks.....

BEARS they have made Sweetness, BUTKUS, the KANSAS Comet........need to make Samurai MIKE, DENT, MARSHALL, WILSON, FENCIK, McMAHON, BELL, the late Dave DUERSON

COWBOYS they have made Dorsett, ROGER, Emmit, the PLAYMAKER, and TROY......need to make Randy WHITE, TOO TALL JONES, Hollywood HENDERSON, Charlie HARRIS, Charlie WATERS, DD LEWIS, Robert NEWHOUSE, Charles HALEY, Ken Norton JR.

49ERS have made YOUNG, MONTANA, RICE, DEION S., LOTT, CRAIG......need to make RATHMAN, HALEY, Keena TURNER, Randy CROSS, SAPOULO, Eric WRIGHT, John TAYLOR, Dwight CLARK, Ricky WATTERS, HACKSAW Reynolds just to name a few

That's just four teams it could be endless but FANS of all ages want their favorite player so they can live in the MOMENT......not looking at their BANK STATEMENT of course.

Here is the LIST of the NBA M&N Throwbacks........

The list goes into HOCKEY as well with some of the greats LIKE the GREAT ONE, the GOLDEN JET, some of the BROAD STREET BULLIES, MIKITA Blackhawks.......and more.

They are pricey jerseys but what comes with the price is and very well made Authentic Remake with the best Craftsmanship. I have a few in my closet...the BLUEDUDE....not getting into how many though......you might stop reading my STUFF......LOL.

The 2 places I still get them is at the MITCHELL and NESS online Store mitchellandness.com or I call the STORE....because sometimes they might have something you don't see on the web.... and my FAVORITE SITE......RETROTHROWBACKS.com.......in North Carolina......been carrying them since 1997 and a HUGE PACKERS Fan.......and if you are not buying his website is a SPORTS NOSTALGIC Museum onto itself check it out.....and a LARGE SELECTION of Retired JERSEYS....the ones that even M&N doesn't even carry anymore because they are out of stock everywhere but RETROTHROWBACKS.......ASK FOR SCOTT

THROWBACKS.......you probably don't wear them......i will always wear them.....especially my STEELERS and BULLS Jerseys

right now SNAPBACKS are in....them FOOLS in PHILLY have them by the LIBERTY BELL full.
