Evoking memories of the great Roberto Clemente and a precursor to the stunning 7-game victory over the New York Yankees in the 1960 World Series, offered is a game-used 1959 Pittsburgh Pirates flannel vest jersey. Inside the collar is a MacGregor size 46 label with a team issued "Set 2 1959" tag sewn into the inside right seam. The jersey has been re-numbered as the "6" is a single stitch and the "0" matches the "Pirates" logo on the front with a black and yellow tackle-twill stitch. The jersey exhibits expected game-wear, especially along the thin piping outlining at the collar and arm holes. A fantastic garment that has survived over half a century! LOA from Mile High Card Company.
