Gary Carter’s Game-Used Memorabilia: A Tribute to a Baseball Legend

A Hall of Fame Legacy

Inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame in 2003, Gary Carter remains an iconic figure in the world of baseball. His illustrious career is celebrated through the retirement of his No. 8 by the Montreal Expos, a testament to his enduring impact on the sport. Now, collectors and fans have the unique opportunity to own a piece of Carter’s legacy through this exclusive auction of his game-used memorabilia.

Details of the Memorabilia

The collection includes a remarkable array of items that reflect Carter’s storied career. Among these is a batting helmet, featuring an “American Baseball Cap” size “7 3/8” manufacturer’s tag, accompanied by a warning label. The back of the helmet proudly displays an “ABC” logo sticker adjacent to an “MLB” logo sticker, while the front is adorned with an “M” Expos logo decal. The bill of the helmet is personalized with “CARTER” inscribed on a white piece of tape.

• Shin Guards: Each shin guard is emblazoned with an “ALL-STAR” logo on each knee, complemented by an official “MLB” logo and model number “LG21W-PRO”.
• Chest Protector: The chest protector features an official “MLB” tag and an “ALL-STAR” manufacturer’s tag on the strap, with “ALL-STAR” prominently displayed on the front left chest.
• Cap: Inside the sweatband of the cap is a “New Era PRO MODEL” manufacturer’s tag, alongside an official “MLB” tag and a size “7 ¼” tag. The number “8” is inscribed in black marker, and the front showcases an “M” Expos logo embroidered in red, white, and blue stitching.
