Tom Glavine’s Game-Worn Jersey: A Piece of Baseball History

A Legendary Career

Tom Glavine, a name synonymous with excellence in baseball, was inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame in 2014 on his first ballot. As a two-time NL Cy Young Award winner, Glavine’s career is decorated with achievements, including a World Series Championship and the coveted World Series MVP title. His legacy is etched in the annals of baseball history, making any memorabilia associated with him highly sought after.

The Jersey’s Unique Features

This remarkable jersey, worn by Glavine, is a testament to his illustrious career. The front left tail of the jersey proudly displays the “RUSSELL ATHLETIC” manufacturer’s tag, complete with washing instructions. Attached to this are two additional tags that read “46 100% POLYESTER” and “47-46-02”. Across the front, “Atlanta” is emblazoned in red on navy blue tackle twill, accompanied by the iconic Braves tomahawk. The player number “47” graces the back in the same striking red on navy blue tackle twill, with “GLAVINE” elegantly displayed in navy tackle twill on a grey nameplate.

Authenticity and Provenance

On the back of the collar, the official “MLB” logo is embroidered, while the left sleeve features the “Russell Athletic” logo. Inside the rear waistline, a “RUSSELL ATHLETIC” size “36” manufacturer’s tag with washing instructions is present, along with a tag reading “100% POLYESTER H-CUT”. Adjacent to this is a strip tag that reads “47-GLAVINE-36/38-32-02”. The back above the pocket is adorned with a “Russell Athletic” logo. This uniform is properly tagged, presented to us as game-used, and in our opinion, shows appropriate use. It is accompanied by an additional Letter of Authenticity (LOA).
