A 3-time All-Star and World Series champion in 1995, catcher Javy Lopez would see MLB action with Atlanta (1992–2003), Baltimore (2004–2006) and Boston (2006). We have a pair of Atlanta Braves jerseys worn by the Puerto Rican star, from 1994 and 1997 respectively, along with a mask, chest protector, shin guards and cleats from the mid-1990s, with all items (except the jerseys) signed. The jerseys are from Russell (1994) and Wilson (1997), with sizing and date labels along the lower front, with the 1994 example featuring the baseball 125th anniversary patch over the right sleeve. Both garments feature tackle twill team crests with “Lopez” across the nameplate in single twill. A COA will accompany the 1994 example.
The breakdown for each of the offered items is as follows: 1) 1994 & 1997 Javy Lopez game-worn Atlanta Braves jerseys. Each remains in beautiful condition, with some sweat staining to the collar of the 1997 example, with some pilling also taking place along the back neckline. 2) Javy Lopez game-worn mask. A Wilson A3007 model with a cloth patch along the back strapping, some tape has been added along the back strap, with nice use exhibited. Lopez has signed along the bottom left in blue marker adding his number, with just a slight amount of bleeding to the signature. 3) Javy Lopez game-worn chest protector. A Wilson model with back strap present and nice use exhibited, Javy has signed along the middle section in black marker adding his number, and the signature displays well, perfect for display. 4) Javy Lopez game-worn shin guards. Wilson models in solid red to match the ensemble, with all strapping intact, and moderate to heavy use shown with scratches, marks and abrasions. Javy has signed each across the top of the shin section, with each signature exhibiting fading and loss. 5) Javy Lopez game-worn cleats. Nike Air models in black with white accents, “8” has been handwritten along the back of each, with the number repeated on each side. Nice use is exhibited, with Javy signing each cleat within the white swoosh logos.
