The REAL Pujols AFL jersey

[onlyalbert]

Took a trip with Jeff Scott the other day to pick up the real 2000 AFL jersey. Acquired it from the second owner. The original owner bought it at the 2001 Cardinals Winter Warmup before Pujols left for his first spring training. Nice find eh? He also had the away jersey, and it is now owned by a fellow forum member. Many thanks to him (Rick) on the number match in the last shot showing how both jerseys numbers line up (unlike a certain e-bay offering). And many thanks to Jeff for taking the time out of his busy schedule to make the drive with me. He is working up a letter on the jersey now with all of the pertinent info and photos. It's people like this that make this hobby fun! Truely the highlight of my collection especailly since this is a 1/1 jersey.

Always great when a dedicated collector does his homework and lands a piece he really wants. With historic items like that, we're caretakers not owners. And if you ever decide to retire from the caretaking business, you know where to find me

Thanks Rick, I think I may be "taking care" of this one a while. It will look good hanging next to his 3 MVP bats! There's only one more 1/1 out there! Maybe we can get him to give us a retro autograph!

Pujols' Peoria Chiefs blue gamer from 2000 is framed and hanging on the suite level of the Peoria Chiefs stadium incase anyone is wondering.
