"Don Hutson" jersey in mears

[ivo610]

Wondering if anyone had any background info on the "Don Hutson" jersey in MEARS. It's from the 70s but they are trying to attribute it to the greatest WR of all time ...

That jersey is one of three #14 jerseys (two white, one green) that came from the estate of former Packers equipment manager Bob Noel. He had kept them for many years, recognizing they were unique, having been erroneously been issued to Jerry Tagge. I had bought all three, and sold this one to another collector, who apparently has consigned it to this auction.

If the Packers had indeed followed through and sent one of the #14 jerseys to Hutson, it would likely have been one of the green home ones (since Noel had just one green, compared to two whites). It certainly wasn't this one.
