Any help identifying this jersey would be appreciated. Durene knit. Early to mid 70s Rawlings tagging. "Typed" extra length tag (I have only seen this style of type written extra length tag on pro and major college examples. Arched tackle twill lettering. Who has a stash of vintage hoop publications? Thanks.

I've attempted to research this item for about 10 months now. This jersey is a true mystery. Any guesses would be appreciated.Comment

Thanks, Jeff. If that game was from 1985 or 86, then you picked a good one.Comment

Size 46 is pretty big for these older styles, isn't it?

Sounds good. 46+2 is very big for the era. The number eleven made me think, BIG E. It has to be from some team of importance, because the quality is supreme.Comment

So many oddball 'all-star' games over the years (like this)...
Hard to find pics, roster numbers, etc.

Re: Identification Help: Early 70s Basketball All-Star Jersey
I took a look at APBR.org after I posted and it appears that the last AAU All-American (as they were known) team was in 1968. That doesn't seem to fit the time frame you had on the tagging so I'll try to think of other possibilities.

Yes, that is a possibility. Haven't researched AAU or industrial league all-star teams from the early 70s.Comment
