All five signatures are in black marker below the navy-blue interlocking “NY” logo on the left chest, in order, Nettles, Mattingly, Guidry, Randolph and Jeter.

Jeter was named as the 11th officially recognized captain of the Yankees in 2003. Notably, Lou Gehrig was captain from 1935 to 1939, followed by Thurman Munson from 1976 to 1979. Later Yankees captains include Nettles (1982-1984), Randolph (1986-1988), Guidry (1986-1988) and Mattingly (1991-1995). The white Russell Athletic jersey with navy-blue pinstripes has a small “R” logo embroidered in navy-blue on the left sleeve. This jersey is inscribed “66/100” in black marker in the lower left flap. The jersey is mounted in a white matte with black background and navy accent and displayed in a 41 x 42-inch black wood with glass frame.
