1975 Earl Weaver Game-Worn Orioles Jersey (w/Interior Smoking Pouch)

Earl Weaver led the Orioles to six AL East titles, four pennants, and one World Series victory in his 17 seasons. At 5’ 7” and 160 pounds, he was a fiery Napoleonic leader, tossed from nearly 100 big league games. But he was also an innovator, as demonstrated in his pioneering the radar gun and...his uniform customization. As a liberal smoker, who’s managerial style relied heavily on player-performance charts, Weaver directed that a pouch be sewn into his jersey front for secure storage of his “top secret tendency stats” and, conveniently, to conceal his cigarettes.


This beautifully preserved button-down knit incorporates that the storied pouch, visible from the exterior via three mini-stitch lines adjacent to the “L” and “S” in the scripted "Orioles" identifier. All of the features of a mid ‘70s Wilson-made Orioles road knit are present, including the collar main label (size 40), soft cotton inner collar and button path lining, three-color sleeve ends, orange/black collar trim, “undersized” front and back, two-color block numerals, year/set tail designator ("75 1") and beautifully arched, 2 5/8”, uniquely fonted NOB.


The ‘Lil General signed the jersey beautifully under the front number, and the wear is season-long solid.
