Larry Bird’s 1991-92 Playoffs Jersey: A Piece of Basketball History

A Legendary Player and His Iconic Jersey

In the pantheon of basketball legends, few names resonate as profoundly as Larry Bird. A two-time Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame inductee, Bird’s legacy is immortalized with his No. 33 jersey retired by the Boston Celtics. This particular jersey, worn during the 1991-92 NBA playoffs, is a testament to Bird’s enduring impact on the game. The Celtics played five home games during this playoff run, on April 23rd, April 25th, May 8th, May 10th, and May 15th. While a conclusive photo-match to these games remains elusive due to limited image availability, the jersey itself is a remarkable artifact of Bird’s storied career.

Details of the Jersey

The jersey features a “Champion” distributor’s tag on the front left tail, reading “YEAR 1991 ID# BODY LENGTH +2”. Notably, “33” and “1992 Playoffs” are inscribed in pen on this tag. Adjacent to it is a “Champion” size “46” manufacturer’s tag with washing instructions, and a tag on the left inseam reads “100% NYLON”. The left chest proudly displays the official “NBA” logo, embroidered with precision.

• Team Name: “CELTICS” emblazoned across the chest
• Player Number: “33” on both the front and back
• Player Name: “BIRD” across the back
• Material: White mesh with green tackle twill lettering and numbering
