Ted Simmons’ 1976 St. Louis Cardinals Jersey: A Piece of Baseball History

A Legendary Player

Ted Simmons, an eight-time All-Star and a revered member of the St. Louis Cardinals Hall of Fame, is celebrated for his extraordinary contributions to baseball. His career is marked by remarkable achievements and an enduring legacy that continues to inspire fans and players alike. This jersey, worn by Simmons during the 1976 season, is a testament to his prowess on the field and his indelible mark on the game.

Exquisite Craftsmanship and Design

The jersey is a pristine example of the craftsmanship and design that characterized the era. Inside the front right tail, a “Rawlings” size “44” manufacturer’s tag with washing instructions is prominently displayed. Attached are two flag tags that read, “SET 1” and “1976,” respectively. Across the chest, the iconic “Cardinals” name is emblazoned, accompanied by the team’s two-bird logo in vibrant red, navy blue, and yellow chain-stitching. The player number “23” graces both the front and back, while “SIMMONS” is proudly displayed across the back in red on navy blue tackle twill, sewn directly onto the off-white jersey.
