The Milwaukee Braves came within one game of winning two World Series in a row over the New York Yankees in 1957 and 1958 and those fans lucky enough to have seen those Fall classics at County Stadium may have been led to their seats by ushers clad in a red jacket such as this one from 1955 on. It has a gold outline of the Braves' Indian head logo stitched on the left breast pocket with the number "13" inside it. The jacket has some wear on the interior lining but is a nice memento of the Braves' Milwaukee era.
