7/26 & 7/27/2002 Tim Spooneybarger Atlanta Braves Turn Back the Clock Game-Used Home Jersey

The Atlanta Braves Throwback Jersey: A Piece of Baseball History

An Iconic Throwback

Step back in time with this remarkable piece of baseball memorabilia, a throwback jersey from the Atlanta Braves’ home series against the Philadelphia Phillies. This jersey, adorned with the classic “Braves” script across the chest, is a testament to the rich history of Major League Baseball and the enduring legacy of the Braves franchise.

Details of the Jersey

On the front left tail, this jersey proudly displays a “COOPERSTOWN COLLECTION Mitchell & Ness” manufacturer’s tag, accompanied by an MLB hologram sticker “MT 00010520.” This sticker authenticates the jersey as a game-used piece from the Braves’ home throwback series against the Phillies on July 26 and 27, 2002. Spooneybarger, a key player, participated in both games, adding to the jersey’s historical significance.

• Tags and Markings: Adjacent to the manufacturer’s tag is a “1974” tag, and below it, a “TBC JULY 2002” tag, indicating the jersey’s throwback nature.
• Inseam and Collar Tags: The left inseam features a “UFCW” distributor’s tag, while the inside below the rear collar bears a “Mitchell & Ness” manufacturer’s tag with an attached size “XL” tag and washing instructions.
• Design Elements: The player number “43” is prominently displayed on both the front and back, crafted in blue on white tackle twill with a red-stitched border. Each sleeve is adorned with the Braves’ team logo in red, white, and blue tackle twill.

Why This Jersey Stands Out

This jersey is not just a piece of fabric; it is a symbol of a specific era in baseball history. Presented to us as game-used, it shows appropriate use, making it a coveted item for collectors and enthusiasts alike. The meticulous craftsmanship and attention to detail in the jersey’s design reflect the pride and tradition of the Atlanta Braves.

For those looking to expand their sports memorabilia collection, this jersey offers a unique opportunity to own a piece of MLB history. Its connection to a specific series of games and its authentic game-used status make it a standout item in any collection.
