Ted Williams called him the toughest pitcher he ever faced. Bob Feller was a flamethrower over his Hall of Fame career, and well after his retirement, "The Heater from Van Meter" sported this rare alternate red jersey while coaching during spring training. "INDIANS" is stitched in white on blue on the front, while there is Wilson Size 46 tagging in the collar and "76" year tag sewn on the front tail. A seldom-seen original "Cleveland Spirit of '76" patch is sewn on the right sleeve and the original Chief Wahoo mascot patch appears on the left sleeve. Feller's #19 - which had been retired upon the ace's retirement - is evident on the back and is all original with no name showing (it appears there never was one).
