Can you read his name?

I got a hat signed by Wally for my brother while in Japan for the All Star Tour.

He wore it to the doctors office and got a shot of penicillin in the A'ss.

I think it says Todd

Looks like it says "Best of luck Todd" then he signed it below. I basically found the jersey while helping a girlfriend move. It was really the only thing I got our of the relationship.

Grey preferrable - Been scouring ebay for longer than I can remember. Actually ran accross on e but it was about 2 sizes too small.

Rettenmund

was an Angel also, so it's a push on ex-Angel quantity.

Bring back Al Wisk!!!

I know where you can go to get authentic looking numbers and a name put on the back. Email me for the info on that I am not sure what a size 46 translates to. XL maybe?

It is way overdue Arte. #5 needs to be retired by the Angels.
