Leon "Bull" Durham 1981 Chicago Cubs game used spring training jersey features "CHICAGO 28" on the front and "DURHAM 28" on the back sewn on in blue tackle twill. The collar of the jersey features a "Wilson 42" manufacturers/size tag as well as "28 80 2 42" player number, year, set and size swatch sewn underneath. The jersey exhibits quality overall game use. This jersey was worn by Jerry Martin in 1980 and by Bull during spring training in 1981 before switching to #10 for the regular season. Likely the first jersey worn by Bull with the Cubs. The Cubs team logo patch is present on the left sleeve. Durham was selected to 2 NL All-Star teams (1982 & 1983) while with the Cubbies from 1981-88 and finished 12th in the NL MVP voting in 1984.
