Is there a guide to names on the backs (NOBs) of jerseys on vintage game-used baseball jerseys before the '70s? For example, did the 1965 Cleveland Indians have NOBs on their jerseys. I apologize if this information has been provided in a previous thread. Thanks for any information.

Re: NOB of vintage jerseys
Which players wore first names or other unusual variations on the back of their jerseys? Uni Watch takes a look.
Uni-watch would have examples of odd NOBs in different sports.
I do not know of a "guide". I do have some examples from my photo archives.
I'll check.
Good Luck! -

Ones I can vouch for include:'
White Sox (road 1960-70, home 1961-70)
Angels (1970-71)
Oakland (1970-71)
KC A's (1963 crude knit yellow vests by Wilson)
Orioles (1966-71)
Tigers (1970-71)
Cardinals (1963-70, unsure about 1962)
Braves (1963-64)
Reds (1965-71)
Astros (1971)
I probably missed a couple; feel free to add on to this.

Re: NOB of vintage jerseys
1962 St. Louis Cardinals had names on the backs of jersey. A 1962 home Musial jersey offered by Heritage Auctions was graded A10 by MEARS and I've also seen a 1962 road Bob Burda jersey with NOB.Comment
