Rob Steinmetz is offering a 81-83 Mets Kingman jacket with LOA from Kingman. I didn't know the Mets wore white jackets with their first names embroidered in script in the front. I remember the Mets training staff had white versions of the Mets jackets in the old days (re: trainerTom McKenna).

Hi Robert,

Andy Fogel is actually the ebay seller 2000mets. It says Dave 26 which is Kingman's name and number. Looks like a very rare jacket.

i wouldn't worry about buying anything from andy- there isn't a bigger mets collector around (or one more knowledgable and honest)

The jacket Andy is selling is 100% good and comes with a letter signed by Kingman. It does not get any better than that. Andy is selling off some things to fuel a purchase...
