Curt Schilling Signed Game Used 1997 Philadelphia Phillies TBTC Jersey Beckett
Philadelphia Phillies ace and perennial Hall of Fame candidate Curt Schilling wore this Turn Back the Clock Philadelphia Stars jersey on June 28th, 1997 against the Atlanta Braves at Turner Field. Schilling started this game, pitching 5.2 innings and striking out 12 Braves in Philadelphia’s 9-1 road loss to Atlanta. Schilling made his first career All-Star team in 1997, finishing the season with a 17-11 record, a 2.97 ERA, and the most strikeouts in baseball, with 319. Schilling made three consecutive All-Star teams with Philadelphia before a mid-2000 trade sent the Alaskan ace to the young Arizona Diamondbacks.
This offered Philadelphia Phillies throwback jersey is a gray button-down, with “PHILA STARS” sewn across the chest in red and black felt. Red piping accents the chest, collar, and shoulders, while a Jackie Robinson 50th Anniversary patch is sewn on the left sleeve. Schilling’s number “38” is sewn on the back of the jersey in red and black felt. A Cooperstown Collection tag and a “T.B.C. 6-28-97” tag are sewn on the front left tail of the jersey. A Mitchell & Ness size “XXL” tag is sewn on the back inside collar. Schilling has signed the lower chest of the jersey in black marker. The jersey comes with a LOA from Beckett Authentication Services (A30930) for Schilling’s signature, and a LOA from noted baseball game used jersey expert William Henderson.
