Thurman Munson game him the name “Mr. October”, but if you have some serious coin at hand, you could slip this baby on and pretend you are.

Hunt Auctions is auctioning off this 1978 Reggie Jackson New York Yankees home jersey worn during the World Series. Cost? Hunt has the price going for between $15,000 and $20,000. Hey, if it’s associated with the Yankees, chances seem good it will get sold.
