Los Angeles Angels (PCL) Satin Varsity Jacket
A MODERN HOMAGE TO THE LA ANGELS (PCL), MINOR LEAGUE'S BEST TEAM
History: The original Angels were formed in 1903 as charter members of the PCL. The club was bought by chewing gum magnate William Wrigley Jr. in 1921, and soon built the first Wrigley Field, a spectacular double-decked 21,000 seat ballpark at 42nd and Avalon. In 1958, they were forced to move to a smaller market as a result of the Brooklyn Dodgers' move to Los Angeles, which brought Major League Baseball competition into the PCL's territory. The franchise relocated to Spokane, Washington, as the Spokane Indians.
The 1903, 1934, and 1943 Angels were recognized as being among the 100 greatest minor league teams of all time. The 1934 team, with a 137–50 record, was ranked as the number one minor league team.
This Satin Varsity Jacket pays modern homage to the legendary LA team, detailed with felt “LA” lettering, backside felt emblem, quilted lining, soft knitted ribbing, matte snap buttons, and front and inside pockets.
