This extraordinary piece of baseball memorabilia captures the essence of a pivotal moment in Major League Baseball history. Worn by Jones during his rookie season, this jersey is a testament to his early impact on the game and the Atlanta Braves’ storied legacy.

Details and Features

Crafted with precision, this jersey features the Wilson manufacturer’s tag with washing instructions and an attached flag tag indicating the size “42”. Adjacent to this is a box tag denoting the year “96”, marking the year of the Braves’ memorable World Series run. The right sleeve proudly displays the “1996 World Series” patch, a symbol of the team’s championship aspirations.

• Team Name: Across the chest, the jersey reads “Braves” in red on navy blue tackle twill, accompanied by the team’s iconic Tomahawk logo.
• Player Number: The back of the jersey showcases the player number “25”, also in red on navy blue tackle twill.
• Player Name: “A. JONES” is emblazoned across the back in navy blue tackle twill on a white nameplate.

A Signature of Authenticity

Adding to the jersey’s allure, Andruw Jones himself has signed the back in blue marker, with the inscription “1996 World Series Game Used”. This signature not only enhances the jersey’s value but also serves as a personal touch from the player, connecting fans to the momentous occasion.

While we have been unable to confirm the spacing on the nameplate from available images in the World Series, this jersey was likely worn earlier in the season, given the amount of wear it exhibits. This jersey is properly tagged, was presented to us as game-used and in our opinion shows appropriate use. Accompanied by a Full LOA from JSA, this piece stands as a testament to its authenticity and historical significance.
