Exquisite Game-Worn Jerseys: Milt Carthens and Reyes
A Testament to Football Legacy
In the realm of football memorabilia, few items capture the essence of the game like a game-worn jersey. These jerseys are more than just fabric; they are a testament to the grit, determination, and passion that define the sport. Among such treasures are the jerseys of Milt Carthens and Reyes, each telling a unique story of their time on the field.
The Milt Carthens Jersey
The Milt Carthens jersey is a remarkable piece of football history. On the front left tail, it proudly displays the “Russell Athletic” size 50 manufacturer’s tag, complete with wash instructions. This jersey is adorned with the player number “68” in blue on grey screen print, prominently featured on the front, back, and each sleeve. Across the back, the player name “CARTHENS” is emblazoned in blue vinyl lettering on a white nameplate, intriguingly placed over another nameplate. This jersey, presented to us as game-worn, showcases light to moderate game use, with team repairs visible, yet it remains unaltered, preserving its authenticity.
The Reyes Jersey
Similarly, the Reyes jersey stands as a testament to the player’s prowess on the field. It features the “Russell Athletic” size 48 manufacturer’s tag on the front left tail, accompanied by wash instructions. The player number “72” is displayed in blue on grey screen print, gracing the front, back, and each sleeve. The player name “REYES” is elegantly placed in blue vinyl lettering on a white nameplate, also layered over another nameplate. This jersey boasts a custom cut neckline, adding a touch of uniqueness. Like the Carthens jersey, it shows light to moderate game use with team repairs, maintaining its original form without any alterations.
