The Jersey: A Testament to Greatness

This exquisite Utah Jazz jersey, worn by Stockton during the 1995-96 NBA season, is a masterpiece of sports memorabilia. The front left tail features the Champion manufacturer’s tag, size “40,” with washing instructions. Adjacent to it is an additional tag that reads, “DESIGNED & TAILORED 95-96 EXCLUSIVELY FOR UTAH JAZZ BODY LENGTH + 2.” The left inseam holds a materials tag, while the upper left chest proudly displays the official “NBA” logo, embroidered with precision.

Across the chest, the iconic “UTAH JAZZ” is screen printed in vibrant purple, yellow, and green. The player number “12” graces both the front and back of the jersey, screen printed in bold purple. The back of the jersey features the player name “STOCKTON” in purple tackle twill, sewn directly onto the white mesh fabric. This jersey is not just a piece of clothing; it is a symbol of Stockton’s unparalleled career and his indelible mark on the game.

A Signature of Authenticity

Adding to its allure, Stockton has signed the front of the jersey in black, with the signature rating an impressive 8 in our expert opinion. While there is evidence of prior framing, including glue and residue throughout the jersey, it displays beautifully from the front, capturing the essence of Stockton’s legacy.
