Description: Superb 1983 Cal Ripken Jr. Baltimore Orioles road jersey. Grey knit jersey as worn by Ripken Jr. very early in his career during the 1983 MVP and World Championship season. The jersey front retains its original Orioles team name and #8; the back has "Ripken" nameplate and #8 both remaining in original condition as well. Tail front displays the Medalist/Sand Knit tagging along with "Baltimore Orioles Exclusive" tag. Interior tail area has two original strip tags with "83 44" and "8 Ripken" respectively. The jersey itself exhibits perfect use including light (appropriate) age toning with properly muted color to the trim from sun exposure. Lettering and numerals all display even, uniform wash and use wear. The 1983 season was without question one of the most significant of Ripken's hallowed career. The offered jersey originates from a family member of a team source and is quite possibly the finest Cal Ripken Jr. uniform to have been offered publicly. Signed by Ripken Jr. across the front in black sharpie. Includes LOA from JSA (autograph), LOA from Hunt Auctions, and letter of provenance from the family: EX-EX/MT
