Hank Aaron and Ted Williams game-worn jerseys sell for $138,000 and $111,000
The Boston Red Sox home uniform (pants and jersey) was worn by Hall of Fame outfielder Ted Williams in 1950. Sold for $111,000.



LOS ANGELES, CA.- A 1965 Hank Aaron Milwaukee Braves game-worn jersey and a game-worn 1950 jersey belonging to Ted Williams sold for $138,000 and $111,000 respectively at Robert Edward Auctions.

Hank Aaron Milwaukee Braves jerseys are rare and have always been highly prized by collectors. This Milwaukee Aaron jersey Robert Edward Auctions has ever offered and the auction house can verify having seen only two others at auction in the past 15 years. The white flannel jersey is lettered "Braves" across the chest and features the number "44" on the left breast and reverse. All letters and numerals are appliquéd in red on navy tackle twill. Aaron's name, the year, and the jersey's set number (Aaron H. 65 Set 1") are chain-stitched in black upon a white strip tag in the collar. A "Wilson 40" label is located on the left front tail and a "screaming" Braves team patch adorns the left sleeve. Aaron has signed the jersey in black marker.

This particular jersey dates to the Braves' final season in Milwaukee before moving to Atlanta for the 1966 season. Aaron hit 398 of his eventual 755 home runs as a Milwaukee Brave, including 32 during the 1965 season. Aaron closed his 12-year career in Milwaukee by batting .318 with 32 home runs, 89 RBI, and a league-leading 40 doubles in 1965.

Bidding began at $25,000.

Ted Williams Jersey
The Boston Red Sox home uniform (pants and jersey) was worn by Hall of Fame outfielder Ted Williams in 1950 that is estimated to go for $125,000. This is an extremely early Ted Williams jersey and one of only a few we have seen dating prior to 1951. The fact that it is a high-grade home example signed by Williams, and comes complete with the original pants, makes it especially significant. Williams signed the jersey, "Best Wishes/Ted Williams" in black marker on the left chest.

Bidding for the jersey began at $50,000.
