Description
The 1986 New York Mets season was the Mets’ 25th season in the National League. They improved from a 98–64 record in 1985 to finish the season with a franchise record of 108–54, giving them the division title. They went on to defeat the Houston Astros in six games in the NLCS and the American League champion Boston Red Sox in seven games in the World Series. This is their last championship to date.
The 1986 Mets are one of just three National League teams (the other two are the 1975 Cincinnati Reds and the 2022 Los Angeles Dodgers) to have won twice as many games as lost in the regular season since 1909. The team is often regarded as one of the best of all-time, being cited in 2021 by ESPN as a top contender for best MLB team of the previous half-century from 1970 to 2020.
Presented is an iconic 1986 New York Mets team photo, hand-signed by five key members: Howard Johnson, Ron Darling, Wally Backman, Danny Heep, and All-Star Dwight ‘Doc’ Gooden. While the Gooden signature shows a slight smudge (see images for detail), the piece remains a premium collectible. This item features a JSA witnessed hologram and matching COA, ensuring the signatures are 100% authentic.
*****Please note that the Dwight Gooden signature is slightly smudged.
