1954 Arnie Galiffa San Francisco 49ers Game Worn Jersey (Galiffa Family LOA)
This rare San Francisco 49ers style was worn during the 1954 season, the "Golden Era" of 49ers football, as quarterback Arnie Galiffa wore #16 before there ever was a Joe Montana. This brilliant red medium-weight home jersey is made of stretch cotton with white sleeve accents with #16 sewn on the front and back. A "Wilson" manufacturers tag, correct for the period, is on the front tail and has a adjacent size "48" flag tag. The jersey has been well preserved, with evident usage, including a pair of small team repairs on the back. This is an extraordinary rare example and one of the only specimens of this style 49ers jersey since the period. Includes a Letter of Provenance from the Galiffa granddaughter and was initially part of the Michael Cupon Collection. In EX condition, plus, comes with his 1954 Bowman card graded PSA 8 showing him wearing a similar jersey, if not "the" one.
