Description: This Ryne Sandberg 1997 Chicago Cubs game used jersey features the Cubs logo on the left front chest as well as "SANDBERG" and "23" on the back in red-on-white tackle twill. The front tail of the jersey features a "Russell" manufacturer's tag with "48" for the jersey's size. There is a "48-97"2" swatch in the collar referring to the size, year and set number. The jersey shows light evidence of game use as these blue alternate jerseys were only worn a handful of times in 1997. The National League logo patch is present on the right sleeve while the Jackie Robinson 50th Anniversary Patch adorns the left sleeve. Accompanied by Sandberg's blue and gray Cubs undershirt.
Accompanied by a Letter of Authenticity from noted game used jersey expert Dave Miedema authenticating its use. Miedema concludes: "After a thorough examination of this Ryne Sandberg game used jersey, it is my opinion that this jersey is authentic as described and can be attributed to being used by Sandberg during the 1997 season."
