In addition to being one of the most talented players in basketball history, Julius “Dr. J” Erving was also one of the most important, bringing an above-the-rim playing style to the forefront. Erving was inducted into the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame in 1993, was named to the NBA’s 50th Anniversary All-Time Team and the ABA’s All-Time Team. He has championships in both the ABA and NBA in addition to winning MVP awards in both leagues. On the front left tail is a “Wilson” size “40” manufacturer’s tag with washing instructions. Across the chest reads, “SIXERS” and the player number “6” appears on both the front and on the back. These are done in blue on red tackle twill. Across the back reads the player name “ERVING” in blue tackle twill sewn directly onto the white mesh jersey. This jersey is properly tagged, was presented to us as game-used and in our opinion shows light use. Accompanied by an additional LOA grading the shirt an A5.
