A Rhodes scholar and three-time All-American at Princeton, Bill Bradley led his Tigers to three Ivy League Championships. Also the captain of the 1964 U.S. Olympic basketball team that won a gold medal, he was recruited by the New York Knicks and began a career in the NBA in 1968. Playing for over 10 years along with HOF teammates Dave DeBusschere, Walt Frazier and Willis Reed, "Dollar" Bill Bradley led the Knicks to two World Championships (1970, 1973). Inducted into the HOF in 1984, Bradley went on to become a U.S. Senator from New Jersey and a U.S. Presidential candidate. On the left front tail of this Bill Bradley blue durene jersey is the "GERRY COSBY" manufacturer's tag. Adjacent is a white tag with wash instructions and another manufacturer's tag "Felco Wear Co.

On the back is the player name "BRADLEY" in white tackle twill and the player number "24" in orange on white tackle twill. The jersey shows game use and appears to have no alterations of any kind.
