Lot #164:

Mid 1960s Wayne Hawkins Oakland Raiders AFL Game-Used & Autographed Home Durene Jersey (JSA • Photo-Matched • Repairs)

On the front middle tail is the “Sand-Knit” manufacturer’s tag with size “50”. Across the chest, on both shoulders, and on the back is the player number “65”. Across the back on a black nameplate is the player name “HAWKINS”. All lettering and numbering is done in silver tackle twill. Hawkins has signed the “5” on the back in black marker, in our opinion the signature rates a 9. There are numerous repairs made to the jersey across the top right and left chest. This is an AFL jersey and shows beautiful team repairs. The jersey is properly tagged, was presented to us as game-used and in our opinion shows outstanding use. Accompanied by a LOA from JSA.

Please note that the photo-matching and grading authentication work on this jersey was performed by a new hobby service for game-used material PM&G. More information can be found at Photo-Match.com
