Description: Superb Dave Schultz Phila. Flyers road jersey c.1973-74. The offered jersey truly symbolizes the Phila. Flyers brand of hockey during the early to mid 1970's. Orange knit shirt with original embroidered Flyers logo on front retains team placed "Schultz" nameplate on reverse and #8 underneath. Amazingly includes the original Schultz nameplate which has been torn in half from a fight. To say that the jersey exhibits nice usage wear would be an injustice. Heavy wear throughout includes, but not limited to: interior pilling, frayed interior collar, several team stitched repairs, original interior fight strap, significant wash wear, and most significantly blood staining on both front and back from an unconfirmed number of Schultz's on ice victims (and maybe a small bit of Dave's own!-Just kidding Mr. Schultz). This actual jersey was worn during the 1973-74 Stanley Cup playoffs when the Flyers captured their inaugural title. In many ways Schultz and the Broad Street Bullies became synonymous with the city of Philadelphia and even today those very characteristics of heart and undying optimism hold true. Without question the finest Phila. Flyers game worn jersey to come into the marketplace and very likely the finest extant with relation to historical relevance. Includes LOA from SCD Authentic David Bushing/Dan Knoll/Robert Orsimarsi and a detailed letter of provenance from Dave Schultz. Dave Schultz will sign the jersey for the winning bidder if so desired: EX (With note to desirable game (and fight) wear)
