Lot Number: 85

Description: Late 1950s or early 1960s Washington Redskins professional model jersey. Maroon jersey has player number "72" on the front, back, and shoulders. Sand-Knit tag on the front tail (with adjacent size 48 flag tag) is a style which would have been issued as early as the late 1950s and continued into the early 1960s. During this time period the number (72) was worn by several Redskins players including Jim Weatherall, Don Churchwell, and Joe Rutgens. Given the extensive use which is evident throughout (including numerous large team repairs) it stands to reason the it was re-used by the team over several seasons. Pre-1970s team issued football jerseys have become notable scarce over the past decade and this is one of only a handful of Washington examples we have handled. Includes LOA from Hunt Auctions: EX
