Description: Exceptional 1979 Eddie Murray Baltimore Orioles professional model road jersey (A.L. Championship season) (SGC/Grob: "Superior"). Desirable original early career example dating to an American League Championship season. Road gray jersey has "Orioles" lettered across the front with number "33" below. Number also appears on back below "Murray" nameplate. "Wilson" manufacturers tag in collar notes the size "44" and there is an "79 1" embroidered strip tag on front tail. Choice usage and wash wear evident throughout. Starting with his 1977 Rookie of The Year Award winning campaign Eddie Murray was a model of consistency and wound down his career (20) years later having attained the rare combination of 500 homeruns and 3,000 hits. Along the way he earned (3) batting titles and just as many Gold Gloves, played in (8) All-Star Games, and won the 1983 World Series as a member of the Baltimore Orioles. Substantive Murray equipment, with special note to the early era in which this jersey was issued, is seldom offered and highly sought after. Includes LOAs from Hunt Auctions and SGC/Grob (graded "Superior"): EXEstimated Price Range: ($7,500-$10,000)
