Made By: American Cast Iron Company
The IronEight is a tribute to Iron Man Cal Ripken, Jr. that’s actually cast in iron. This unique limited-edition collectible, just 2,632 castings, is an exact replica of the orange-on-black number worn by Cal as it appeared on the front of his home-game jersey throughout his career and on his away-game jersey during the ’81-’88 and ’95-’01 seasons. Each casting features Cal’s 2007 HOF signature and the edition number laser-etched into the back. They’re officially licensed by Ironclad Authentics, Major League Baseball, the National Baseball Hall of Fame, and Cooperstown Collection. The MLB hologram appears on both the product and the packaging. IronEight comes in a custom wood crate branded with Cal’s HOF signature and the National Baseball Hall of Fame logo on the front. The Orioles logo, a tribute to Cal, and the official licensors’ logos are branded on the back. And every crate is hand-numbered and wrapped in a full-color sleeve featuring photos of Cal in action. A perfect desktop commemorative of one of the game’s very best. The IronEight package makes a very impressive presentation, and would make a perfect gift for Cal Ripken, Jr. fans of any generation. Casting weight: 2½ pounds. Casting size: 2½" x 4" x 1".
