The 1982 World Series championship. The Hall of Fame in 2010. Authenticated and certified by James Spence Authentication (JSA) and presented in a frame measuring 35 by 39 inches, this signed Cardinals white jersey is the collectible of the manager who shaped a franchise.

He played in the major leagues as an outfielder for eight seasons — with the Yankees, Athletics, Orioles, and Tigers — but it was his career in the dugout that produced the legacy. He managed the Kansas City Royals from 1975 through 1979, winning three consecutive AL West division titles and taking the Royals to the 1980 American League Championship Series, before arriving in St. Louis as both manager and general manager to remake the Cardinals.

Ozzie Smith at shortstop. Willie McGee in center. The speed game operating at its most effective. Herzog's Cardinals. The white jersey. JSA authenticated. Framed 35x39.

For Cardinals fans who watched Whiteyball in its prime and for baseball history enthusiasts who study the evolution of managing philosophy, the signed Cardinals white jersey is the artifact of the dugout mind that shaped Busch Stadium in the 1980s.
