Unveiling a Rare Gem: The Upshaw Game-Worn Uniform

A Testament to Baseball History

In the realm of baseball memorabilia, few items capture the imagination and reverence of collectors quite like a game-worn uniform. The Upshaw uniform, presented to us as game-used, is a remarkable artifact that embodies the spirit and history of America’s pastime. This ensemble, comprising a jersey, shorts, cap, and stirrups, is a testament to the era it represents, offering a tangible connection to the game as it was played decades ago.

Detailed Craftsmanship and Authenticity

The jersey is adorned with the “Wilson” tag, a hallmark of quality, featuring wash instructions and a jersey size of “46.” Beneath this, a strip tag with “75 Set 2” is meticulously embroidered in navy blue chain stitch, signifying its authenticity and place in history. Inside the rear collar, the name “Upshaw” is elegantly embroidered, further cementing its provenance. The player number “34” is prominently displayed on both the front and back in striking red on white tackle twill, a classic design that evokes nostalgia.
