Want Jim Tunney's uniform?

It's up for bid...

Interesting piece of sartorial history, if nothing else.

Hmmm. I wonder if this is the uniform he wore in the 1988 "fog bowl" in Chicago. There are a few venomous fans in my area who would love to shred it. Tough crowd in Philly. (of course they boo the best)

Unlikely. Look at the old NFL logo. It's from a great many years ago.

Leland's is a reputable auction house, and the item says it comes with a letter of authenticity from Tunney himself.

This thing belongs in Canton, as far as I'm concerned. As does Tunney.

Definitely not. This uniform is much older than that. The website says it is from the '60's, which looks about right.
