In 1971, Tony McGee joined the Chicago Bears after attending college at Wyoming. It would mark the great Gale Sayers' last season as a Bear and his final year in pro football. This uniform belonged to McGee and was signed by Sayers in black marker (Sayers signed all of the jerseys of his teammates that year). Before his signature he wrote "Peace", an apropos term for that time. The jersey is extra long and the "Wilson 48" tag is in a different than usual spot because of the extra length. Jersey is in EX condition with team repairs on both shoulders.
