Description: This Frank Thomas 1996 Chicago White Sox All Star game issued Jersey features "Chicago" across the chest and his number "35" on front and back sewn in with black-on-white tackle twill. The lower left front tail of the jersey features a "Russell Athletic 48" manufacturer's/size tag with an affixed white tag that reads "35 48 96" for the player number/size and year. The jersey doesn't show evidence of game use as Thomas was voted in to start the 1996 All-Star Game but missed the game due to injury. Still a one of a kind jersey nonetheless. The jersey features the White Sox team logo patch on the left sleeve and the All-Star game patch on the right sleeve. Very attractive Thomas jersey.
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 Frank Thomas game used jersey, it is my opinion that this jersey is authentic as described and can be attributed to being issued Thomas for use during the 1996 All-Star Game in Philadelphia."
