1982 Phil Niekro Game-Issued Atlanta Braves Powder Blue Jersey – #35 – With Grey Flannel LOA
Offered here is a 1982 Phil Niekro game-issued Atlanta Braves powder blue jersey, a stunning example from one of baseball’s most beloved knuckleballers. This vintage pullover-style jersey features Niekro’s iconic #35 on both the front and back in bold tackle twill, along with the classic Atlanta script logo across the chest.
The jersey includes all proper Wilson tagging with correct size markings and the “82” year identifier stitched at the bottom, confirming its issue for the 1982 season. It shows no game wear, consistent with being game-issued but not worn, and presents beautifully for display.
Included is a Letter of Authenticity from Grey Flannel Auctions, verifying the jersey’s authenticity.
A fantastic addition for any Braves fan, Hall of Fame collector, or lover of vintage MLB uniforms — a piece of baseball history tied to the great Phil Niekro, one of the most enduring pitchers of his era.
