1989-90 Bo Jackson Game Worn Jersey Raiders – COA MEARS 10

Bo Jackson Game-Worn Jersey with repairs and use.  It’s is the rarest Raiders jersey to find with use and provenance of this kind. It is for this reason that it has a MEARS 10.  This exceptional piece of sports memorabilia is a game-worn home jersey from Bo Jackson of the Los Angeles Raiders, dating to the 1989-1990 period. Crafted by MacGregor Sand and knit with exclusive tagging in the collar, the black mesh jersey is a size 42 pullover, prominently displaying JACKSON in silver across the back on a black nameplate, while his iconic number “34” is featured in silver tackle twill on the front, back, and both sleeves. The jersey exhibits moderate wear, repairs and puckering consistent with its use during competitive play, and all tagging and sizing conform to exemplars from that era. Accompanied by a full Letter of Authenticity from MEARS 10.

Provenance means everything to gamers, and for this Bo Jackson gamer, it comes directly from the longtime equipment manager, Mr. Bob Romanski.  It was gifted to Mr. Romanski’s wife’s longtime friend, whose husband also worked for the Raiders as the premier videographer for many years.  The Videographer, is mentioned many times in the history of the Raiders, including Greg Papas’ farewell speech to the Raider Fans.  The videographer is mentioned at the end of the speech.  The jersey has not seen the light of day since it was gifted back in the late 80’s.    The use on the jersey is incredible and is certainly one of the most amazing game-worn Raiders jerseys we have seen in decades, and that is why it has been deemed a Mears 10 on authentication.  It is accompanied by the original Raiders Business Card of the Raiders Video Director.
