Beckett graded this signature 9 out of 10, a strong mark from the authenticator who examined it. Below that grade sits Wesley Sneijder's signed AFC Ajax 2004-2005 shirt, number 18, a Fanshop Authentic from the season he was making his name in midfield in Amsterdam. The man who signed it would go on to become the Netherlands' all-time most-capped player, with 134 caps standing as the national record, and by the time he set that mark he had already worn the orange at a major tournament, UEFA Euro 2004, the summer before this shirt's season began.
The shirt
This is the Fanshop Authentic version of the Ajax 2004-2005 shirt, number 18, the licensed retail shirt in the club's red and white. It carries no match provenance. What it offers is the correct shirt for the season as the canvas for a verified signature from Sneijder himself.
Authentication and provenance
With certificate BU08836 from Beckett. Documented with a certificate of authenticity, a letter of authentication, a witnessed signing session, and a grade of 9 out of 10. Walkouts proof code 25WSN20015918. Signed 2025-01-03.
For the collector
What you are holding onto here is a fixed point: Sneijder in the 2004-2005 season at AFC Ajax, the midfielder still in the early chapters with the Netherlands national team after Euro 2004, before the cap record was anywhere near in sight. A genuine shirt from that exact season anchors to that moment in a way no later reproduction can, because it was the shirt of the time and not a copy of it.
What you receive
Your purchase includes the signed shirt, photo proof of signing, and the authentication documentation.
Why Walkouts
The certainty here is something the collector can check rather than take on faith. Beckett authenticated the signature and issued certificate BU08836, and the Walkouts proof code 25WSN20015918 ties the shirt to its witnessed signing session, both independently verifiable at the source. The path is yours to walk: read the certificate against the proof code and confirm it for yourself.
A real anchor to Sneijder's Ajax season, with the proof sitting quietly underneath, ready whenever the collector wants to look.
