simpsontide Posted June 26, 2007 Share Posted June 26, 2007 I'm looking at getting a Yankees jersey with #2 on it but I want it to be the exact style # that they use. I've got a guy that I am getting the blank jersey from but getting a # on there is my responsibilty. Any help would be appreciated. Here's a pic of it.

erlovepuck Posted June 26, 2007 Share Posted June 26, 2007 I would just send it someplace like Exclusive Pro Sports. If its a home jersey its just a one color number so it would have to be relatively inexpensive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
patsox Posted June 26, 2007 Share Posted June 26, 2007 It's bound to be included in one of eriqjaffe's NFL number fonts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lopernv Posted June 26, 2007 Share Posted June 26, 2007 It's bound to be included in one of eriqjaffe's NFL number fonts.Or in his MLB ones... Â Â Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tmorss9 Posted June 27, 2007 Share Posted June 27, 2007 I don't think it is in Eriq's fonts, but if it is and I missed it, let me know. "Hats for bats. Keep bats warm. Gracias" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Billy B Posted June 27, 2007 Share Posted June 27, 2007 I'm pretty sure the Yankees font is the standard MLB block that most teams use. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrAsterisk Posted June 27, 2007 Share Posted June 27, 2007 I'm quite sure that's not the case, just looking at the serif on the bottom of the "2". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oddball Posted June 27, 2007 Share Posted June 27, 2007 Well according to what eriajaffe's fonts the standard mlb block would be what the Dodgers use. The closest to what I could find in his fonts that I have would be NFL Varsity Block H. Â Â Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bulldogbarks55 Posted June 27, 2007 Share Posted June 27, 2007 The Bronx Bumblers have used the standard full-block font from Wilson for years. This is also the same font that the Tigers use on their home whites. Stahls makes all the MLB fonts (except Wahington). Go to stahls.com and look under "Ball Park Styles."

Gothamite Posted June 27, 2007 Share Posted June 27, 2007 I really don't see how the number font is terribly relevant to you.Even if you had it, what are you going to do, print out a template, lay it on some tackle-twill and cut around it?There are plenty of reputable places that will put an authentic-style number on your jersey. erlovepuck mentioned Exclusive Pro Sports above. Check out samples of their work, and when you find one that seems to match your photo the best, hand it over and let them worry about what font it is. The Green Bay Packers Uniform Database!

So if he had the font, he could take it to a shop and have a lettered and sewn jersey in about 30 minutes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
metsfan Posted September 11, 2007 Share Posted September 11, 2007 Go to any local uniform customization shop and tell them that you want a 8" COLLEGIATE BLOCK font #2 it is the exact font that the Yankees use. If you ask for the standard block font it will have the corners angled out and you do not want that one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swilson160 Posted September 11, 2007 Share Posted September 11, 2007 Do you really want to get this done at a place where you give then a Yankees' jersey and they ask you what font you want? "Oh, I dunno, how about Lucida Sans?" There are reputable places that won't need to ask you what font to use...I'd pick one of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
