Roberto Baggio, born 18 February 1967, won both the Ballon d’Or and FIFA World Player of the Year in 1993. He played for seven Italian clubs — Vicenza, Fiorentina, Juventus, AC Milan, Bologna, Inter Milan and Brescia — and his 1990 move from Fiorentina to Juventus was a world record transfer. He won two Serie A titles, a Coppa Italia and a UEFA Cup. For Italy he played 56 matches, finished third at the 1990 World Cup, led the side to the 1994 final and took the Silver Ball, and missed the decisive penalty in the shoot-out against Brazil. He is the only Italian to have scored at three World Cups and finished with 205 Serie A goals.
This is the single most important thing to know here. The majority of the listing is made up of items labelled Garman Reissue or ABM Reissue — modern reproductions of his Brescia shirts from 2000–02 and his Fiorentina shirts from 1988–90, not shirts manufactured at the time. They are priced accordingly, well below period originals, and several are listed as new rather than graded for wear.
The genuinely period items here are a small group of Italy shirts, including the 1994 World Cup home shirt, plus a couple of Brescia pieces and an AC Milan graphic shirt. Every one carries the number 10, except the earliest Italy entry at 15. His Juventus years — the world-record move, the Ballon d’Or season — are not represented at all, and neither are Vicenza, Bologna or Inter. Condition on the period shirts runs from 4/10 to 8/10.
