Autographed/Signed Andre Dawson Montreal Pinstripe Baseball Jersey JSA COA

⚾ Autographed Andre Dawson Montreal Expos Pinstripe Baseball Jersey JSA COA — Born Miami Florida, Florida A&M University, 1977 NL Rookie of the Year, 6x Gold Glove Winner in Montreal, Two-Time MVP Runner-Up, 1987 NL MVP, Baseball Hall of Fame Class of 2010, "The Hawk" — Signed Montreal Pinstripe Jersey, JSA Authenticated

The Montreal pinstripes. Before Wrigley Field. Before the 1987 MVP trophy. Before Cooperstown. There was Olympic Stadium and a right fielder with a rifle arm and knees that would eventually demand a move to natural grass — Andre Dawson, patrolling the outfield for a Montreal Expos franchise that never quite reached the World Series but built, in Dawson, one of the most complete five-tool players of his generation. This Montreal pinstripe jersey, signed by Andre Dawson and authenticated by JSA, is the artifact of the years before the fame widened — the Expos years, the foundation years, the years where "The Hawk" first earned the respect that carried him all the way to the Hall of Fame.

🌟 Miami, Florida — Florida A&M — An 11th-Round Pick Who Outworked the Board

Andre Nolan Dawson was born July 10, 1954, in Miami, Florida, and built his game at Florida A&M University, one of the storied HBCU athletic programs in the country. The Montreal Expos selected him in the 11th round of the 1975 MLB Draft — a late-round flier on a raw outfielder rather than a can't-miss headline prospect. Dawson made the decision look absurd within two seasons. He debuted in 1976, took over as an everyday outfielder in 1977, and won the National League Rookie of the Year Award in his first full season — the first tangible sign that Montreal had found something special in the back half of the draft.

🏆 The Montreal Years — Six Gold Gloves, Two MVP Runner-Up Finishes, a Franchise Cornerstone

Across 11 seasons in Montreal, Andre Dawson became the offensive and defensive identity of the Expos. He piled up 225 home runs, 838 RBI, and 2,679 total bases in the tri-color jersey — numbers that still rank among the top figures in franchise history. He won six consecutive Gold Glove Awards patrolling right field at Olympic Stadium, an artificial-turf ballpark that punished outfielders' knees and legs over a full season, punishment Dawson absorbed year after year while still playing center-field-caliber defense in a corner spot. He finished as the National League MVP runner-up twice with Montreal, in 1981 and 1983, falling just short of the award that he would eventually claim elsewhere — but the Expos years were where the case was built. This signed pinstripe jersey is the direct artifact of that foundation.

⭐ The Hawk — A Hall of Fame Career Rooted in Montreal

Andre Dawson's career total reads like a Cooperstown blueprint: 2,774 hits, 438 home runs, a .279 career batting average, 8 Gold Gloves, 4 Silver Slugger Awards, a Rookie of the Year trophy, and the 1987 National League MVP Award — won with the Chicago Cubs after he led the league with 49 home runs and 137 RBI despite the Cubs finishing last in their division, a testament to individual excellence recognized even on a non-contending team. Andre Dawson was inducted into the National Baseball Hall of Fame in 2010, entering as an Expo at heart even though his plaque carries a Cubs cap — the debate itself a tribute to how much of "The Hawk" legend was written in Montreal pinstripes first. This signed jersey, authenticated by JSA, is a piece of the years when the Hall of Fame case began.
