Hall of Fame slugger Frank Thomas signed this game used Chicago White Sox batting helmet. In 1990, his first season in the Major Leagues, while he only played in 60 games, “The Big Hurt” flashed his huge potential, collecting 7 home runs, 31 RBI, and a .330 batting average in his first Major League stint. He would go on to win two American League MVP Awards, slug 521 career home runs, and be inducted into the Hall of Fame on his first ballot.

     This helmet is dark blue with a red bill, and features the White Sox curly “C” logo. Thomas signed the right side of the helmet, inscribing “To Todd – Best wishes”. “7 ¼” has been written in black marker on the crown padding. This helmet comes with a COA from Steve Grad of Beckett Authentication for the signature (B54333). There is also a LOA from JT Sports that authenticates the game use of this helmet but was unable to conclude that it was actually worn by Thomas.
