Description
Alex Rodriguez 1996 All-Star Game Worn Mariners Jersey This isn't just any All-Star jersey -- it's an Alex Rodriguez All-Star jersey. And it's not just any Alex Rodriguez All-Star jersey, it's Alex Rodriguez' first All-Star jersey. We have to admit, we're a bit surprised he would let this one go. Nothing could be more satisfying (short of a Championship ring) than an invitation to the Midsummer Classic, especially for a twenty-year old kid in the very competitive shortstop position. But sure enough, Alex let this one go, and the provenance is just impeccable. There are not one, but two signed letters from Alex himself attesting to the authenticity of the jersey, and a third from an employee of the Scott Boras Corporation, A-Rod's high-powered agent. b On to the jersey itself, which exhibits particularly strong wear, suggesting that it was in regular rotation for Alex before the All-Star break. The grey roadster offers a bold "Seattle" on the chest, with "Rodriguez 3" on verso. The team logo patch on the left sleeve is overshadowed by the ostentatious All-Star Game patch on the right. "Russell Athletic Diamond Collection [size] 48" labeling in the tail rises above a "100% Polyester" flap tag and "96" year strip tag. And finally, Alex offers two modes of display, as he has inscribed both front and back in perfect blue sharpie: "Alex Rodriguez All-Star 96 Gamer." LOA from Dan Knoll & Dave Bushing/SCD Authentic. Additional LOA's James Spence & Steve Grad/PSA DNA and Mike Gutierrez/MGA.Auction Info
