Not only that but it will be the first sweater he wore during his rookie season!!!

So, when this rare beauty comes to auction, not only will it be the star attraction it will have it's own separate mini catalog describing the research and provenance that went into ascertaining that this is the Babe's very own sweater. Also, there will be multiple full page color photographs to let you see the intricate details and fine craftsmanship of this one of a kind, museum quality piece of baseball history........

Only problem is, compared with real examples, there are neither "intricate details," nor "fine craftsmanship."
