Pairing the design with the modern colors personally reminds me a bit of the Miami Art Deco District. I adore that sleeve logo! Was that something the old minor league team used or did you make it? It's head and shoulders ahead of anything the modern franchise has done and, honestly, better than any iteration of the dolphin either.

It is a logo the Minor League team used, and the team threw back to in 2013, but I had to recreate it digitally. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJD7 Posted March 21 Author Share Posted March 21 San Francisco Giants As @Discrim sort of guessed, I went with a plaid pattern inspired by what the 1916 New York Giants wore. 5 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MJD7 Posted March 24 Author Share Posted March 24 Tampa Bay Rays This design is inspired by two Tampa Minor League teams: the main design is inspired by the "Tampa Smokers" who existed from 1919-1954, and the patch is inspired by the Tampa Tarpons that existed from 1957-1988. Big thanks to @raysox for providing the font that I used! 8 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MJD7 Posted March 25 Author Share Posted March 25 Texas Rangers Since I kept a red jersey in the main set for the Rangers, this was the perfect opportunity to add powder blue back into the mix, like they wore from 1976-1982. 6 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJD7 Posted March 26 Author Share Posted March 26 Toronto Blue Jays This jersey is inspired by the Toronto Maple Leafs: not the hockey team, but the Minor League team that existed from 1896-1967. The script was given to me by @Discrim, thank you for allowing me to use it! 9 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Other than that, great design as always. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MJD7 Posted March 27 Author Share Posted March 27 Washington Nationals I loved the throwback the Nats wore in 2019, which was the powder blue jersey the Expos wore for a decade, from their inception in 1969 until 1979, so I referenced that here. 6 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GOD that would make a good alternate for the current Nationals...could do something to save them from that horrific road uni that's throwing down the whole set. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJD7 Posted March 28 Author Share Posted March 28 I hope you enjoyed this 2nd volume of the Cooperstown Collection! This was probably one of my favorite series I've done to date. I'll be around to post my changes to this year's City Connects as they release, and then after that, who knows... Now let's enjoy Opening Day! 6 4 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
