In 1996, Albert Belle hit for a .311 average, 48 home-runs and a league leading 148 RBI as the Cleveland Indians finished with the best record in the AL for the second consecutive season. On the front left tail is a “RUSSELL ATHLETIC” size “50” manufacturer’s tag with washing instructions. Attached are two flag tags that read “2” EXTRA LENGTH” and “100% POLYESTER”. Below is a tag that reads “1996”. Across the front reads “CLEVELAND” in red on blue on white tackle twill. Across the back reads player name “BELLE” on a grey nameplate. Below is the player number “8”. These are both done in the same red on blue tackle twill. The left sleeve has an “Indians” logo patch and the right sleeve has a patch that reads “A.L. Indians Champions ‘95” and a “Russell Athletic” logo embroidered below it. This jersey is properly tagged, was presented to us as game-used and in our opinion shows appropriate use. Accompanied by an additional LOA.
