(BBHoF LOA)
Grand Showcase: Larry Johnson’s Charlotte Hornets Game-Worn Jersey
A Piece of NBA History
Step into the world of basketball memorabilia with this extraordinary piece from the 1994-95 NBA season. This jersey, worn by the legendary Larry Johnson, is a testament to the Charlotte Hornets’ vibrant history and the player’s indelible impact on the game. Crafted with precision and care, this jersey is not just a garment but a relic of basketball’s golden era.
Exquisite Craftsmanship and Design
The jersey features a “Champion” manufacturer’s tag on the front left tail, proudly stating, “DESIGNED & TAILORED 94-95 EXCLUSIVELY FOR CHARLOTTE HORNETS BODY LENGTH +4”. Adjacent to it is another “Champion” size “50” tag with detailed washing instructions. The left inseam reveals a material tag that reads, “BODY FABRIC: COLORS 100% NYLON WHITE 100% POLYESTER”, ensuring the garment’s authenticity and quality.
Adorning the left chest is the official “NBA” logo, embroidered with finesse. The front of the jersey boldly displays “CHARLOTTE”, while the player number “2” graces both the front and back. Across the back, the name “JOHNSON” is emblazoned, all in teal on blue tackle twill, sewn directly onto the white mesh fabric. This jersey is properly tagged, was presented to us as game-used and in our opinion shows excellent use.
Why This Jersey Stands Out
- Authenticity: Features original Champion tags and NBA logo, ensuring its genuine nature.
- Historical Significance: Represents Larry Johnson’s impactful tenure with the Charlotte Hornets.
- Condition: Shows excellent use, indicative of its game-worn status.
- Design: Unique teal on blue tackle twill lettering and numbering.
