1983 Keith Hernandez New York Mets Game Worn Jersey - First Season with Mets (Davious Photo-Matched LOA)
<p>Game worn Keith Hernandez New York Mets jersey dates from 1983, the flashy first baseman's first season in the Big Apple. White doubleknit pullover has blue pinstripes and blue-and-orange stripes across the shoulders and down the sides. Collar tagging includes Rawlings size 44, Set 1 1983, and "831" strip tag. Script Mets logo is across the chest above number 17 in blue-on-orange tackle twill, name is arched on a plate on back above the number in same style. Nice use shown from expected wear and tear, and this jersey matches to 1984 Donruss card & 1984 Donruss Action All-Stars cards. In addition, it matches to three photos via Getty Images: 121142317, 121142319, 53046360. Hernandez was a key cog in the Mets' success of the mid-1980s, including their 1986 World Series Championship. Comes with Davious Photomatching LOA.</p><p><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Note:</span></strong> The Getty images used for matching the jersey are listed as circa 1983. Getty image <span style="font-size: 13px;">53046360 ended up being used for Keith's 1984 Donruss card, and since the photos used for players' cards were from the year before, we can conclude this jersey was worn by Keith Hernandez in 1983. Another example of this is Sid Fernandez, whose 1984 Donruss card sports him in a Dodgers uniform. Fernandez pitched in two games for the Dodgers in 1983, and started the 1984 season with the Mets, so the photo used for his card could not have been from 1984.</span></p>
