1969 Padres Metal Bowl
A collectible metal bowl honoring the Padres’ 1969 debut season
Description
Metal bowl commemorating the San Diego Padres’ 1969 inaugural season and was preserved within the Tony Gwynn Estate. As the Padres began their Major League journey, this collectible item captured the early spirit of the franchise. Decades later, Tony Gwynn would become the face of that same franchise—spending all 20 years of his Hall of Fame career in San Diego and earning the nickname “Mr. Padre.” This piece links the club’s earliest chapter with its most iconic player, offering historical and sentimental value to collectors and fans alike.

Disclaimer: The exact composition of the metal is unknown. Surface details and finish may vary slightly from photos, with minor imperfections consistent with age and handling. This item features a silver OVD, verifying its authenticity through the Tony Gwynn Estate. A TRuEST™ authenticator was not on-site to witness its awarding, which is why this item does not carry our gold-level witness-based authentication OVD.
