Before the crazy mustache, there was this jersey, worn by the Hall of Fame right hander during his first season in the Majors. Fantastic sleeveless style features classic "Oakland" in Old English lettering across chest, and number "34" on back. Note that there has been a number change, but this was done by the team when they switched Fingers' roster number. Use is quite good, though most of it must have come from the bullpen as Fingers pitched only a single inning this season, allowing three runs to score for a 27 ERA. That's proof that anybody can improve, right? Tagging in tail is "Tim McAuliffe [size] 42" with "68" year tag. Blue sharpie signature is perfect. Included with lot is framed display (12x19") with NRMT signed photo and two baseball cards picturing Fingers in his early years.
