⚾ Framed Autographed/Signed Howard Johnson HOJO 35x39 New York Grey Baseball Jersey JSA COA — The Museum-Framed Hand-Signed New York Mets Grey Road Jersey of the Clearwater, Florida-Born Third Baseman and Shortstop Who Achieved the Rare 30-Home-Run-30-Stolen-Base Season Three Times in His Career and Was a Key Member of the 1986 World Series Champion New York Mets, Authenticated by James Spence Authentication

✨ The framed Howard Johnson "HoJo" signed New York Mets grey baseball jersey, authenticated by James Spence Authentication (JSA) and professionally framed to 35x39 display dimensions, captures the road grey jersey of the New York Mets player whose 30-30 seasons became one of the signature statistical achievements of the late 1980s National League. The Mets' grey road jersey carries the "New York" lettering that the franchise has used across different design generations — the identifier that connects the modern team to its roots in the National League history of New York baseball. JSA — James Spence Authentication, one of the most widely recognized authentication organizations in the signed memorabilia market — provides the Certificate of Authenticity that documents this specific signature and connects it to the professional authentication process that collectors and institutions depend on for long-term verification confidence.

⚾ Howard Johnson was born November 29, 1960, in Clearwater, Florida — the pinellas County community on the western side of Tampa Bay, the Gulf Coast city whose year-round baseball climate has served as a spring training destination for major-league teams and a development community for players from the broader Tampa Bay area. He attended Clearwater High School before his professional path took him through the Detroit Tigers organization — where he won a World Series ring in 1984 as a backup infielder on the Tigers' dominant championship team — and then to the New York Mets, the franchise where his career reached its most celebrated chapter.

⚾ The New York Mets acquired Howard Johnson from Detroit in December 1984, and what followed was one of the most productive power-speed combination careers the franchise has seen at the corner infield positions. Johnson achieved the 30-30 season — 30 or more home runs and 30 or more stolen bases in a single season — in 1987 (36 HR, 32 SB), 1989 (36 HR, 41 SB), and 1991 (38 HR, 30 SB), a three-time accomplishment of that specific threshold that placed him among a very small group of players in the history of professional baseball who have reached it even once. His time at Shea Stadium coincided with the Mets' most competitive era: he was part of the 1986 World Series Championship team alongside Dwight Gooden, Darryl Strawberry, Keith Hernandez, and Gary Carter, the roster that Mets fans of that generation remember as the team that played the game with a particular combination of talent and competitive edge that defined a championship season. The "HoJo" nickname — embraced by the Shea Stadium faithful and by sports media during his years in Queens — became one of the most affectionately recognizable player names in Mets history, a nickname that carries the casual warmth of the relationship between a player and the city where his career mattered most.
