The Dave Kingman Thread

[skyking26]

Nice! Very envious of the A's jerseys. I'd love to add a Kingman to my collection but I guess you got the market cornered on those

Well, he's been retired since '87 and the further from retirement one gets; the less we tend to see their stuff out there. I can't recall the last time I saw a GU bat available let alone a jersey.

Back when jerseys would pop up, his Home Gold's were most plentiful followed by the Road Green's. The Home White's have always been tuff (do you find that to be true as well?) I've always found Oakland jerseys to be bright and attractive and away from the norm for sure.

1989 West Palm Beach Tropics Dave Kingman GU Jersey (Home)

My understanding is this is the only Home he wore that season. Shows good use.

1989 West Palm Beach Tropics Dave Kingman GU Jersey (Road); GU Hat

My understanding here is that there were 2 Road jerseys. The Virginia Dave Kingman collector that I bought the 75 Mets jersey from recently said that the majority if not all the players Roads that season came in too short; thus the hem line on this Road Kingman. The VA collector (Jeff), has the non-hem replacement, and I have the first Road obviously...

Love the Cubs stuff but that Tropics jersey is my favorite!

Well I don't know about Kingmans but I only have 1 gold jersey from the 70-80s,but 5-6 whites and a few greens. I do like the gold and greens. Even the modern ones are cool. White or grey seems too common
