Circa 1978 Gar Heard Phoenix Suns Game-Used & Autographed Home Jersey

Alvan Adams’ Phoenix Suns Jersey: A Testament to Basketball Excellence

A Piece of Basketball History

In the realm of basketball memorabilia, few items capture the essence of the game like a game-worn jersey. This particular jersey, donned by the legendary Alvan Adams, is a remarkable artifact from the Phoenix Suns’ storied past. The jersey is a vivid representation of the team’s vibrant colors and the player’s indelible impact on the court.

Design and Details

The front left tail of the jersey proudly displays the Spanjan manufacturer’s tag, indicating a size “44” with an attached flag tag reading “XL”. On the right inseam, a flag tag with washing instructions ensures the garment’s care. Across the chest, the name “PHOENIX” is emblazoned in bold orange on purple tackle twill, a striking contrast that captures the eye. Below and on the back, the player number “24” is similarly crafted, while the player name “HEARD” graces the back in purple tackle twill.

Signatures and Authenticity

Adding to the jersey’s allure, Alvan Adams has signed both the front and back in black marker. In our expert opinion, these signatures rate a combined 8, enhancing the jersey’s value and appeal. This jersey is properly tagged, was presented to us as game-used and in our opinion shows excellent use. Accompanied by an ALOA from JSA and a MEARS LOA grading the jersey a perfect A10, this piece is a testament to authenticity and significance.
