Tim Raines tore up the basepaths at the Big 'O' wearing these size 8.5 Mizunos. Raines has signed each shoe, and as well they show plenty of game wear. Also included in this lot is a signed 8x10" of Montreal's Big 3; Raines, Gary Carter and Andre Dawson. A Louisville Slugger bat commemorating the Silver Slugger Awards, which Carter won in 1984, rounds out the lot.
Valderi! Valdera! Fans of the Expos will certainly remember that chant from the Big 'O' in the team's heyday, just as they surely remember Tim Raines tearing up the basepaths! These game-worn Muzuno turf shoes show plenty of game wear, with half of the team's games played on the "worst turf in baseball" in Montreal's Olympic Stadium. Raines has signed these size 8.5 shoes which have a "1985 All Star Game" notation but they were not used in the 1985 ASG by Raines.
Also included in this lot is a fantastic 8x10" featuring Gary Carter, Raines and Andre Dawson, which bears all of their signatures in blue marker. Arguably the three biggest Expos stars, all are captured in this autographed classic.
Rounding out the lot is this Louisville Slugger bat, which commemorates the 1984 Silver Slugger winners. The bat shows its age as the finish has started to dry and chip away, but the text is still visible with most of the gold stamping still visible. It reads, in part: "1984 Offensive Teams - Silver Slugger Awards" and lists, by position, players from both the AL and NL at each position and the DH/P. Gary Carter is the NL Catcher and the only Expo recognized on the bat. The bat also displays an inscription: "Made especially for Harvey Goldberg", however some of this text is partially illegible.
