The seller describes it as "THIS IS A 1983 WORLD CHAMPIONS PETE ROSE GAME READY JERSEY. THE JERSEY IS A BLUE WILSON SIZE 42. THE JERSEY HAS THE BLUE PLASTIC ZIPPER AND THE SATIN COLLAR. THE JERSEY IS IN GOOD CONDITION WITH NO SERIOUS WEAR. THIS JERSEY IS FROM THE YEAR THE PHILLIES MADE IT TO THE WORLD SERIES"

Folks, this could not be further from a "game ready" jersey if you tried!

1. The Wilson tag is in the collar-it should be in the tail, directly below the year tag.

2. The size is incorrect for Rose. It is size 42, however, Rose wore a 44.

3. The name ROSE should be stitched in the collar.

4. The name ROSE should be on a plate above the back numbers.

5. The numbers are positioned too high on back.

6. The left sleeve should have the Phillies 100th anniversary patch.

I have emiled the seller, however, not heard back.
