When is the last time you saw an original 1972 Indians jersey? You probably never have-- actually-- because they were nearly all destroyed; they either were stripped to become new-look 1973 Indians jerseys or were sent to the minor leagues to become something else.

Here is one such example sent to me by collector Andy J. for proper documentation and an authentication. The Oklahoma City 89ers Fan Club and Preservation Society can rejoice in knowing that we made no attempt to turn this back into an Indians jersey. Thought you would enjoy seeing this, and so we can stop talking about horrible Nike jerseys for a while.
