⚾ Framed Autographed/Signed Frank Thomas 35x43 Chicago White Sox Grey Baseball Jersey JSA COA – A James Spence Authentication Certified Framed Autographed Chicago White Sox Grey Jersey Bearing Frank Thomas's Authentic Signature, “The Big Hurt,” Two-Time Consecutive American League Most Valuable Player, 521 Career Home Runs, and 2014 Baseball Hall of Fame Inductee

⚾ The title “The Big Hurt” was not given to Frank Thomas by a marketing team – it came from what opposing pitchers and catchers said when he came to the plate. Thomas at his peak was a 6-foot-5, 257-pound first baseman who hit for power and average at a combination the American League had not consistently seen at that position. He won back-to-back AL Most Valuable Player awards in 1993 and 1994, and he did it unanimously both times – the first player in AL history to receive unanimous MVP recognition in consecutive seasons. The numbers that produced those votes: a career batting average of .301, 521 home runs, 1,704 RBIs, and an on-base percentage that reflected his willingness to take a walk when pitchers would not challenge him in the strike zone. This autographed grey White Sox jersey, certified by JSA, is signed by the player who produced that record. Condition: NOS.

⚾ The Chicago White Sox grey jersey in this piece is the away uniform – the jersey Thomas wore when the White Sox traveled and Frank Thomas showed up in opposition ballparks to do what he did in Chicago. The framed 35x39 format makes this a display piece, something built to hang rather than store, to anchor a dedicated White Sox or Big Hurt arrangement or to serve as the centerpiece of a space where the player's career is the subject. The jersey itself carries the White Sox name and the context of the franchise Thomas spent the majority of his career representing. Condition: NOS.

⚾ Thomas was inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame in 2014 with 94.7% of the vote – a number that reflects the consensus among the writers who voted that his career record was unambiguous. Five All-Star selections over the course of his career documented what the league's coaching staffs thought of him when choosing rosters. JSA – James Spence Authentication – certified the signature on this framed jersey, confirming the autograph against their standards for verification. Condition: NOS.
