A Rare Piece of Baseball History: Pittsburgh Pirates Jersey and Pants Set

Introduction to a Unique Artifact

Step into the world of baseball memorabilia with this extraordinary Pittsburgh Pirates uniform set. This remarkable collection includes a jersey, pants, undershirt, and stirrups, each piece steeped in the rich history of America’s favorite pastime. Presented to us as game-used, this ensemble is a testament to the enduring legacy of the sport and its players.

The Jersey: A Symbol of Excellence

The centerpiece of this collection is the jersey, featuring the iconic “PIRATES” across the chest and the player number “32” on the back. Crafted with precision, all numbering and lettering are executed in black felt on yellow tackle twill, a classic design that evokes the spirit of the era. Inside the collar, the MacGregor manufacturer’s tag proudly displays the size “44”, a detail that underscores the authenticity and historical significance of this piece.

  • Manufacturer: MacGregor, size “44”
  • Design: Black felt on yellow tackle twill
  • Player Number: “32”

Adding to its allure, the jersey bears the signature of Law on the front, albeit heavily faded, a poignant reminder of the player who once donned this garment.

The Complementary Pieces

Accompanying the jersey is a pair of 1961 MacGregor pants, size “34”, worn by another player. These pants feature a custom satin lining, enhancing their uniqueness. A strip tag inside the rear below the waistband reads “24 34 25”, providing further insight into their provenance. Law’s signature, though heavily faded, graces the pants as well, linking them indelibly to the player.

Completing the set is a long-sleeved black undershirt, slightly faded, and a pair of stirrups, each piece contributing to the overall narrative of this historic ensemble.

Authenticity and Provenance

This uniform set is not only a visual delight but also a piece of history, presented to us as game-used and, in our opinion, showing appropriate use. It is accompanied by a PM&G LOA grading the jersey a perfect 10, as well as an ALOA from JSA, further cementing its status as a coveted collectible.
