Brazil won 5-2, claiming the nation’s first of five World Cup titles. After the match, he presented his teammate and World Cup roommate Dida (Edvaldo Alves Santa Rosa) with his No. 10 jersey.Pelé played against Sweden in the 1958 World Cup final at just 17 years old.

The museum auctioned it off in September 2004. The buyer, who paid around $105,000 for the shirt, is selling it more than 20 years later.
