Only 3, 000 of these vintage bobble heads were made as this was a Stadium Giveaway Item on Saturday, August 4, 2012 by the AA Southern League Jacksonville (FL) Suns. From 1985 to 1990, Jacksonville was known as the Expos as they were the AA minor league affiliate for the parent club Montreal Expos of the National League during those six seasons. In 1991, the Jacksonville’s team reverted back to the nickname Suns as ownership then began an affiliation with the Seattle Mariners.Since 2016, Jacksonville is now known as the Jacksonville Jumbo Shrimp & is currently affiliated with the Miami Marlins.
This iconic bobblehead, which commemorates Walker’s lone 1987 season in Jacksonville in his vintage Jacksonville Expos’ uniform #33, was sponsored by the Hyatt Regency Jacksonville Riverfront & local Jax TV station WTEV CBS47.
This is a very rare HTF collectible highly sought after by baseball memorabilia collectors & Jacksonville Suns’ bobblehead collectors, many of whom are Montreal Expos’ fans that started collecting when this team was affiliated with the Expos.
Walker played for the following MLB clubs:Montreal Expos (1989-1994)Colorado Rockies (1995-2004)St. Louis Cardinals (2004-2005)
This is an exceptional piece of baseball history & is a definite MUST HAVE for any fan of Larry Walker, the Montreal or Jacksonville Expos, the Jacksonville Suns, Jacksonville Jumbo Shrimp, Jacksonville Minor League or Jax Sports History, or any MLB fan.
