Swedish captain Lars-Erik Sjoberg wore this jersey for the WHA’s Winnipeg Jets in 1977-78. That was the only season that the Avco Cup champion Jets wore this distinctive style featuring red-blue-red striping in the knit V-neck collar. What a unique and amazing jersey from a championship season! Harv-Al Knit label remains in the neck along with a size L flag tag. This white mesh affair measures out to roughly a size 44. Numbers on the back and both sleeves are sewn-on twill as is the captain’s “C” on the left breast. The Jets crest on the front and stripes around the tail and on both sleeves are heat-screened red and blue vinyl. Fantastic game wear shows with four team repairs on the left sleeve, more sewing fixes on the front and back, plenty of marks and paint transfer. Only light cracks with absolutely minimal vinyl loss on the team crest. This is truly one of the more remarkable WHA gamers we have encountered. Comes with a Classic Auctions LOA.
