Description: Superb 1967-1968 Wilt Chamberlain Philadelphia 76'ers home uniform. Without question the centerpiece to the Kosloff collection is the offered uniform worn by Wilt Chamberlain during the 1967-68 season which was his last as a Phila. 76'er. The jersey is white with red and blue trim retaining original #13 on front and back. Wilson tag with size remains on bottom of tail, jersey shows wonderful usage wear while remaining in all original condition. Shorts are matching white with red and blue trim retaining original Wilson tag with size 36 inside waist above chain stitched #13 number tag. Shorts exhibit appropriate usage wear and while it is impossible to know whether Chamberlain wore this pair of shorts during the year at the same time with this jersey we felt it appropriate to keep them together. Among his numerous accomplishments Chamberlain scored his 25,000th point during the season that this jersey was worn and led the Sixers to the Eastern Division Finals before losing to Bill Russell and the Boston Celtics. In addition to winning his fourth league MVP in 1968 he also led the league in assists. The offered uniform represents one of the finest Chamberlain suits extant with regard to condition, rarity, and most importantly provenance. Includes letter of provenance from family and LOA: EX
