The selelrs description clearly notes " Ryan got 2 jersey's to my knowledge and this is the second one"

So, the seller obtained two "second" jerseys? If so, then Howard wore the first, and these two were back-ups? This then accounts for a total of 3 jerseys? If only two jerseys were issued, then one of these should be listed as the actual jersey worn by Howard, correct?


Add to the mystery the small size 50-Howard was wearing a larger jersey in 2006.

The seller was emailed a few days ago, however, no reply has been received.

Although the jerseys in question are size 50, Howard was wearing a size 54 jersey the previous season:

Last year, I was offered his actual 2006 yellow game worn jersey from the Home Run contest (with Ryan Howard LOA), and it was a size 56.
