Current offering by Historic Auctions in their auction is a "1983 Steve Carlton Phillies game worn jacket".

Notice how it has the Phillies Anniversary patch is sewn on the sleeve:

I purchsed a good amount of jackets, jerseys, pregames and pants directly from the Phillies in 1989, and it included quite a few items specifically from the championship season of 1983. I'm not aware of the anniversary patch being worn on anything except their game jerseys. The jackets and pre games did not have the patch on the sleeve. Below are game worn jerseys in my collection from the 1983 season:

I asked Mr. Brown how he determined this jacket as being worn by Carlton in 1983, based on the above. He said " Mr. Wolf, I appreciate you emailing me regarding these two items. I will look into both and see what further information I can obtain regarding each. I will let you know as soon as I know something.

Once I receive a response, this post will be updated, accordingly.
