Bob Lemon was inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame in 1976. As a player, Lemon won two World Series championships and led the MLB in wins two times. As a manager, Lemon won AL Manager of the Year two times. On the front left tail is a “Wilson” size “46” manufacturer’s tag with washing instructions. Below, “46-68” is embroidered. Inside the rear collar, “Lemon” is embroidered on a strip tag. Across the chest reads “ANGELS”. On the back is coach number “20”. Player No. "2" on back has been professionally restored with a period, vintage replacment. Both are done in the same red on navy blue felt lettering. Lemon signed the flannel jersey on the left chest with the added inscription “Hall of Fame 1976” and in our opinion, rates a 7. This jersey is properly tagged, was presented to us as coach-worn and in our opinion, shows appropriate wear. Accompanied by an LOA from JSA.
