The Hawk was at the top of his game when he wore this beautiful powder blue Montreal Expos road uniform. HOF center fielder Andre Dawson’s signed 1984 Expos game-worn jersey and pants each display a “Set 1 1984” flag tag and “Dawson 84” tagging. The jersey with Rawlings size 44 tagging inside the right front tail has a bold black marker autograph on the right breast above Dawson’s red twill No. 10. Andre also signed the upper left leg of the pants, which have Rawlings size 32 and “32 24½ 84” tagging on the inner waistband. Fantastic signed road game-worn uniform from one of the greatest players in Expos history who went on to win the National League MVP with Chicago in 1987. Comes with a Mears letter of opinion.
Gorgeous Expos crest is sewn on the left breast of Dawson’s game-worn jersey in red-white-and-blue triple twill with “Expos” spelled out in individual red twill sewn-on letters. The Hawk established Expos single season records the previous season with 32 homers and 113 RBIs. He had 36 doubles and 10 triples among his 189 hits in 1983, barely missing out on a fourth straight .300 season at the plate with a .299 batting average. Limited to 138 games in 1984, Andre still managed to hit 17 homers and drive in 86 runs.
There is a small mark to the right of the bottom of the “0” on the right front breast, a light oval stain below and to the right of the second button from the top of the jersey, and a couple of very tiny faint marks between the upper part of the numbers on the back.
Dawson’s game-worn pants have an “X” in black marker on the elasticized inner waistband to the right of the Rawlings tagging and an illegible and washed-out black marker notation to its right, as well as a black marker line struck through the “Dawson 84” tagging that indicate that they were most likely recycled. There is a tiny hole low on the front of the right pant leg, just to the right of the red stripe.
Pants game wear shows in pilling, light stains and wear to the fabric on the seat of the pants at the bottom of the right back pocket, marks on the left back pocket. The Mears letter of opinion final grade with respect to characteristics and game use is of "A8.5".
