Description

Dedicated on October 19, 2015, the Tony Gwynn Memorial Freeway honors the Hall of Famer's extraordinary contributions to both baseball and the San Diego community. The designation applies to a three-mile stretch of Interstate 15 near Poway, where Gwynn lived for many years, creating a permanent civic tribute to one of the city's most beloved figures.


Designed in the familiar reflective green used on California highway signage, this official-style memorial sign bears Gwynn's name in bold white lettering. Marked "19" on the reverse, it also reflects the uniform number retired by the Padres in recognition of his remarkable career and lifelong connection to San Diego.


Preserved by the Tony Gwynn Estate, the sign represents a tribute that extends beyond the baseball field, recognizing Gwynn's role as a community leader, ambassador, and enduring symbol of San Diego. It stands as a reminder that his legacy became woven into the identity of the region he represented throughout his career.


Condition may vary slightly from photos, with unique marks that highlight the item's authenticity as a career artifact.


This item features a Silver OVD, indicating that a TRuEST™ authenticator was not on-site to witness its presentation. However, its provenance is verified through the Tony Gwynn Estate, ensuring its authenticity as a career artifact.
