Help Me Out: Uniform History

Red Sox Ultras 1901 Speaking...

Hi guys, long time no see, or as the case is, "post". I love the Red Sox and I take an avid interest in pretty much everything related to them, with exception, perhaps, to what brand of toilet paper Fenway Park employs in its public bathrooms.

As a die hard fan, the Red Sox jersey is, to me, well a pretty much sacred object worthy of being displayed on a little pedestal at the center of the room for convenient worship  (I keep mine in the closet under an Arsenal FC flag much to the relief of my girlfriend, but nobody needs to know that). To cut to the point, I'm sort of an enthusiast when it comes to collecting bits and pieces of the hideously expensive Red Sox uniform.

Mostly I can't afford to buy so much as a hat, however, so I confine myself to trying to track down a history of this great uniform. Somewhat understandably, the history of Boston Red Sox uniforms is a somewhat limited field drawing interest from less than a few people. I like it though, and I'm looking for anything or anybody online who can give me the lowdown on BoSox uniforms, from the history of the red sock to the color underpants worn by Jackie Jensen in 1958 (kidding on that last example).

Do any of you guys know a site listing info and stuff about the Red Sox uniform? Specifically, if one of you could drudge up a website with pictures or pictograms of the Red Sox jersey throughout history that might help cure my, err, uniform fetish.

Thanks a lot all, ;) Take care as always.

You hit the jackpot Randy

In fact, I did come across that page about a year ago or so but I lost the link and never found it again. It’s exactly what I wanted, so thanks a dozen for finding it. I can tell you know these Red Sox inside out as much as anybody.

Forever Red Sox, screw all those pink-hatted babes, 'got no family, 'got no friends, 'got no life--RED SOX I LIVE FOR THIS.
