Lot 1006: 1968 Pittsburgh Pirates Game Worn Uniform with Cap
ITEM DESCRIPTION
|
||||||||||||
Alex Grammas' .800 winning percentage just wasn't good enough to warrant being invited back as Pirates coach. Of course, it should be mentioned that he only skippered five total games in Pittsburgh. From that very short stint though comes his vest-style "home" jersey sewn with the number "5" on front and back. "Rawlings [size[ 42", "Do Not Dry Clean", and, "Set 1 1968" tags in front tail, where also "Grammas" can be found stitched in black. Light use. The accompanying black Rawlings undershirt and Pirates pants date from nearly two decades earlier, while the New Era cap, with number "11" written in marker on the underside of the visor, was likely used in the late 1960's by Jose Pagan.
