Need help to identify purple football jersey

[TheRealG]

Hello GUU people!

I come here now and then to post questions about GU equipment my brother comes across... recently it was for two basketball jerseys (still unknown origin, one looks like a harlem globetrotters jersey) and further back a game-worn jersey by Jerry Mays.

Well, we've got a new one, and would like some help please.

See pics below, but we're looking at a 1960s-1970s football jersey, with a Rawlings tag, and missing numbers. You can tell from the stitching/fading that it's #93.

Apologies on the colour, it's the iPhone camera to blame on this one!

Any help is gratefully appreciated!

Thanks!
G.

The style of Rawlings tag would place it in the 1963-71 range.

Thanks, Dave - every little bit helps.

I'm assuming it's a pro jersey because it's a Rawlings... a fair guess?

All help is appreciated!!!

No. Rawlings made jerseys from all levels, amateur and pro. I bet it's from a college. Check all schools that wear purple.

Glad to see you posting, G.

I'll try digging it up, but we sold it a long long time ago...

JW - sorry, no luck finding the image of the Jerry Mays' jersey.

It was definitely game used, but my brother sold it about 3-4 years ago (I think).

Football Hall-of-Fame as opposed to an old clothes warehouse in Canada. Anyways, nice to know there are many unearthed relics out there.

HOF... well, now you know how "out of it" I am when it comes to Football.
Anyway, we keep finding them, we'll keep posting them.

By the way, I'm thinking the Purple jersey is vintage Kansas State.
The two white stripes seems more K-State versus Northwestern or Huskies.

I've emailed K-State to see if they can help identify it.
