HOFer Catfish Hunter’s 6th big-league season marked his breakout year. He recorded his first season above .500 (18-14) and led the AL in starts (40). This was his liftoff, into 5 straight 20 win campaigns and an A’s three-peat, before heading to the Yankees and a song from Bob Dylan. This is a gorgeous ‘green mist’ example to mark the end of the beloved flannel era. On the front left tail is the McAULIFFE label, with a year (70) and size (46) labels below. A’s logo on the left breast and player number (27) on the right as well as the back - all done in green on yellow tackle twill. Player name (HUNTER) across the back in green tackle twill. Hunter has signed the right breast in black marker, in our opinion rating a 7. This jersey is properly tagged, presented to us as game-used and in our opinion shows excellent wear. Accompanied by an ALOA from JSA.
