Beschreibung:

Bill Bradley early 1970's New York Knicks Signed Home Uniform Bradley carried Princeton to three Ivy League titles, captained the 1964 Olympic Gold Medal team, was a three-time NCAA All-American and fit seamlessly onto a NY Knicks team more concerned with defense and unselfishness on offense. A cerebral player, Bill Bradley was the thinking man of basketball. He could see the game better than just about anyone and would often recognize plays two or three passes before they would develop. This uncanny knack of reading the game was what set the man apart and also what made him such an important part of two New York Knicks championship teams during the early 1970's. "Dollar Bill" as he was known was far more valuable to the Knicks than his statistics would ever indicate. This New York Knicks home cotton knit uniform was worn by the Hall of Famer in the 1970's. In the neck of the jersey is the "Cosby" label and below this is the size tag "46". Across the front of the jersey is the name "New York" made of orange tackle twill on a blue tackle twill backing. On the back of the shirt is the name "Bradley" in letters made of blue tackle twill. His player number "24" appears on both the front and back. Bradley has autographed the front of the jersey above the name "New York." In the waistband of the accompanying trunks is the "Cosby" label with the size tag "36" as well as a blue felt patch with the name "Bradley" chain stitched in orange thread. Light use is evident. This is a fine game worn ensemble from this former US Senator and one of the NBA's 50 Greatest Players. LOAs from MEARS (A6) and Grey Flannel.
