1976 Red Sox home jersey made by Wilson?
Offered on Ebay is a "1976 Bill Lee game worn Red Sox jersey manufactured by Wilson". Based on my understanding of Red Sox knits, Wilson first supplied knits to the Sox starting wih the 1979 season. 1976 shirts have the traditional McCauliffe tagging.

Any thoughts? Minor league jersey?

I concur, it would/should be McAuliffe and for 1976 you would also expect to see the Yawky Armband....

Re: 1976 Red Sox home jersey made by Wilson?
After pointing out the issues with this jersey, the seller has decided to halt the sale. He indicates,"Thank you for your email. I purchased this jersey 25 years ago at least from the Hartel brothers in the Midwest who advertised it as a Bill Lee jersey from 1976. It has been in my collection ever since. I have stopped the listing to research further. Thank you."

Re: 1976 Red Sox home jersey made by Wilson?
It's too bad that someone had to find out that something they had for so long wasn't as it was supposed to be. I agree though, that it's nice that the seller had an open mind about the input he/she received and ended or is going to end the listing as in this one, it sure appears not to be a Spaceman (Lee) 76 Jersey....unless he rehabbed in the minors that year?
