In 1992 Leaf issued a special 14-card set titled the Heritage Series. What made the set unique was that each player featured in it was pictured wearing a replica uniform from his respective team's past while holding vintage equipment from the corresponding era. Offered here is the Brooklyn Dodgers uniform (jersey and hat) worn by Darryl Strawberry, as well as the bat he held, while posing for the photo used to produce his 1992 Leaf Heritage Series card #BC-6. The replica 1944 Brooklyn Dodgers road jersey (#2 on reverse) was produced by Mitchell & Ness, while the matching cap was crafted by Roman. (The jersey can be easily photo matched to the card image.) Strawberry has signed the jersey in blue-Sharpie (7/10) on the left breast. The bat is a H&B Jackie Robinson store-model example. Aside from two tiny stains on the front of the jersey (size L), both it and the cap (size 7 1/2) remain in Near Mint condition. The bat (34") is not cracked and displays light use. Accompanied by Strawberry's 1992 Leaf Heritage Series card. It should be noted that this is one of four uniforms worn by players featured in either the 1992 Leaf Heritage Series set or 1994 Donruss Studio Heritage set offered in this auction.
