Description: 1973 Hank Aaron Atlanta Braves road jersey. Rare and attractive Braves pullover style knit shirt retains its original "Braves" name on front and #44 on both front and back. Sand-Knit tagging remains inside the collar along with the "42-73-Set 1" chain stitched strip tag. Aaron has signed the left sleeve near the arm patch which is repeated on the right sleeve as well. The jersey exhibits evident usage and wash wear including some staining to the white shoulder area and appropriate letter/numeral undulation from washing (also present on the sleeve patches). During the 1973 campaign Aaron batted an amazing .301 with forty home runs. The 1973 season also saw Hank reach the 700 home run mark which, at the time, appeared to be a record for the ages. Statistics and records aside, Hank Aaron remains to date the most prolific home run hitter in the history of the game, which was accomplished against formidable odds. Superb vintage Aaron game jersey from the popular 1970s Braves era. Includes LOA from Hunt Auctions,Inc: EX
