Going by the logo on the jacket, I'd say the thin part of the 'A' and the line through the middle needs to be completely black.

Same goes for the bottom of the 'L'

along with the lines that come off the 'E'

and also the top of the 'T'

Now that I've seen it, it does look strange. But maybe that's how it was? If there was white in all parts of the letters it would show on the jacket

I can almost guarantee you the text in that Viatel logo will be all black. Thats just what embroidering looks like from behind.

Case in point: a similar era Crows Adidas jacket. No white to be seen on the Camry text or Adidas logo, but the “fill” between the outlines are white on the back. Check any embroidered item you have and you’ll probably see similar.

yeah came in here to post that!

Looks like tearaway backing, however the 'inbetween' lettering is hard to weed out. Would say the same thing in the lettering being completely black.

Hadn't given that much thought, but having a look at my Cats polo it makes sense

I was never into textiles and sewing, but, you learn something new every day :thumbsu:
 
In reference to the Adelaide sponsors backs, a unique version of the Toyota logo was used from 2001-2009. It had a different (and skinnier) font.

For comparison, this is the 'normal' Toyota logo that has the wider text.

Pedantic stuff coming through - sorry in advance

Spicers had a much thinner font

Viatel - was 1998 not 1999

Primus font on the back was different to the one on the front - less squished - more like this but taller and slightly less slanted

Hey Mero, I came across this on the grams:

The person who runs the page stated that the two red ribbons were only ever used in 1958, the year Neil Roberts won the Brownlow. I can't seem to find any definitive confirmation of the crest's use in that sole year.
loadImg.php

Most players wore the same jumpers every year, unless they won the premiership, or if the board decided on new designs.

The best footy card version I can find from 1958 season looks like it's red on one side and black on the other.

The pic she supplies of Neil Roberts is of a professional shot at a studio, but the jumper looks brand new and unused. (Note the crease in the sleeve like it's been folded like that)
I'd also note the logo in the pic supplied is much larger on the Black material than the one shown in colour.
Neil Roberts' logo takes up most of the Black cloth.
The one in the image maybe half...? But then, perhaps it was folded, there appear to be fold marks

Great find Spanna_! Based on that, I would suggest that the "gradient" be made less fluid and more of a sequence of individual colour bands (similar to what is used for the front patch), and that the font should not be bold.
Remember buying the book at a swap meet a few years ago and wondering what the weird Collingwood sponsor was haha. Glad to help out, surprised I was able to recall such an obscure item.
