Offered is a Santurce Crabbers home uniform matching the style worn by the Puerto Rican team from 1974-78, as determined by the style of the Wilson manufacters' tag. Our consignor stated he received the jersey directly from Tiant, who played with the team in 1982-83. We were not able to verify his uniform number with the team, and must note the tagging predates his tenure there by 4 years.
1974-78 era Wilson size 42 tag sewn in the collar while a stylized "S" and uniform number 23 are sewn to the jersey in blue tackle twill, with some damage to the numeral 3. Tiant has also signed the jersey in blue marker. Accompanying will be a matching pair of home uniform pants which feature a Wilson size 34 tag sewn in the waistband. Moderate to heavy use shown with some staining present. (62P0109)
