Was given this uniform about 12 years ago as it was part of a theater's prop department and they were getting rid of it. When it was initially given to me, I doubted its authenticity until I started doing some research.
I'd like to get feedback from those that know something about vintage game used uniforms and this ones authenticity, especially what the markings on the pants tag may represent. The jersey I have is #30, the pants are tagged: 9 66 2.

From what I can see your jersey and pants look good. The jersey is from 1966, and is from uniform set number 1. Number 30 was worn by Gil Blanco in 1966. The pants are also from 1966, and were worn by player number 9, that being catcher Billy Bryan. The pants are from uniform set number 2
