The Cincinnati Reds were a National Football League team that played the 1933 season and the first eight games of the 1934 season. The St. Louis Gunners played the last three games of the 1934 National Football League season, replacing the Cincinnati Reds on the league schedule after the Reds' league membership was suspended. We were told by our consignor that this jersey was worn by Swede Johnson during the last Cincinnati Reds NFL game and the first St. Louis Gunners game. He obtained this jersey directy from Swede. Inside the rear left tail is the “Lowe & Campbell” manufacturer’s tag . Player number “23” appears on both the front and back in yellow felt. The jersey is properly tagged, was presented to us as game-used and in our opinion, shows appropriate use.
