I have several in my closet lol. Seriously I would check out places like Value City and discounters and re-sellers. It has been a while so it may be harder then you think.

Value City can be a gold mine at times, but the one near us is usually up-to-date within a year.

Nothing on EBAY?

There was a copyright issue with the original Jerseys and the flying toaster logo so unless you have an original you are not going to find them. My original has the bird logo and I actually have a jersey with no name or numbers but the sleeve logo's, and I think that came from Value City or Ollies many moons ago. It looks like 1999 was the first year with the current look I would doubt you would find any new Old logo stuff. I did not realize it has been 10 years since my kids still wear some of the old logo stuff lol

Here you go Retro Classic Peter Boulware Purple Ravens throwback. I actually just got one myself 2 weeks ago, mine was a starter brand so it was even more Retro (if thats possible) but the Nike brand is what the NFL was wearing back when we won the super bowl.

Another perspective.

Yes I agree. I like the current ones better.

Yeah, my wife has a Harbaugh hanging in her closet. How cool is that?!!!!
I tell her that would be the coolest jersey at the stadium. But she won't wear it because it's not the lastest ladies fit-style jersey.

I thought the flying toaster was only on the helmet and pants. It was always the bird on the jerseys...

I believe that when most joke about the "flying toaster" as the "B" superimposed over the outstretched wings, they refer to the following, which was the subject of the logo lawsuit:

The logo on the jersey sleeves, which was the subject of this thread, was one of the secondary logos in use from 1996-1998:

After the lawsuit was resolved, the Ravens held a fan contest via the Sunpapers to choose the replacement from three of the secondary logos in use in 1998, resulting in logo popularity in the following order:

Winner: [img]http://www.sportslogos.net/images/logos/7/153/thumbs/nyklgmbbhe362qbke35qmozvf.gif[/img]

2nd place: [img]http://www.sportslogos.net/images/logos/7/153/thumbs/ubje7bq6d037s873k9vgf2m3m.gif[/img]

3rd place: [img]http://www.sportslogos.net/images/logos/7/153/thumbs/xkbfh4ce9zmlt7paggdeyxaum.gif[/img]

Despite the Ravens attempt to satisfy the fans' preference, NFL properties revised the bird profile to the current primary logo:
