1938 Babe Ruth Game Worn Brooklyn Dodgers Jersey

1938 Babe Ruth Game Worn Brooklyn Dodgers Jersey

This enormous vintage Dodger home white flannel covered the girth of baseball's biggest attraction, the one and only Bambino. Although the Babe was never fulfilled on his dream of becoming a manager, his short stint as a batting coach with the Brooklyn Dodgers is yet another fascinating piece of the fabled history of George Herman Ruth. The shirt is most attractive in Near Mint condition with "Dodgers" across the chest in blue felt script style. Back bears the number "35" and the left sleeve has the Baseball Centennial felt patch with "1939" in braided embroidery. Chain-stitched in red thread in the collar is "Babe Ruth" with the "A.G. Spalding Bros." tag below and [size] 46 flag tag next to that. On the inside of the back tail is stitched the number, "38." The extra fabric on this one-of-a-kind jersey seems to go on forever, and the original "gusset" with original drawstring on the back of the tail was added on, in order to allow Ruth to tie the jersey to his pants, so his oversized belly wouldn't pull it out of his pants! 100% original and massive. Shows nice vintage use and wear, and perfect.
