1977-78 New England Whalers        

Gordie Howe - Stall and Dean knit, size 50.  This jersey comes directly from a former New England Employee.  Stall and Dean tag in the collar with "7" tag.  I have video matched the following to a game played 3-9-78 were the Whalers lose to the Aeros 6-4.  In the video there are two very nice clear shots of Howe.  One were you can line up the name on the back and the correct distances and alignment, but the clear shot is the mismatching of the left hem seem of the green and gold hem stripes, Gordie draws a penalty in the 3rd and the camera zooms in and you can clearly see this. 

This jersey has also been photo matched. In picture #1 there are very easy points that can be photo matched. #1 is the best one of all, you can see the "O" on the back of the jersey that is lifting away from the jersey, this is because the middle of the "O" is not sewn onto the jersey. For some reason the seamstress missed this.  #2 is the same exact tear on the neck collar. #3 the right side of the "W" is a little bit shorter then the middle and left side. #4 & 5 are easy to spot creases on the harpoon, its the same as the jersey.

In Picture #2 you can see the stick mark and on the jersey the mark is there but a little fainter from washing.

In Picture #3 you can see the stick mark to the left of the crest.
