Re-named the “Golden” Seals in 1970 and retaining the moniker until the franchise moved to Cleveland in 1976, we have a California Golden Seals jersey from the swan song season in 1975-76, with this example attributed to Bob Murdoch. Not to be confused with the veteran defenseman of the same name, the rookie right wing had 22 goals and 49 points in the Seals’ final season before the club became the Barons. A style worn in the Seals’ final two seasons in the Bay Area, this heavy stretchy knit jersey has a vented front collar, cut fight strap and seven team repairs. There is evidence of a former nameplate and that numbers on the sleeve and back were re-positioned, repaired or updated back in the day by the team. Measuring-out to a size 50, Gunzo’s tagging remains in the back of the neck, with a washed-out flag tag also present.
There are four team repairs on the right sleeve, another on the top of the left sleeve, and two more on the front. More game wear includes board burns on the sleeves, reddish-brown spot stains on the front and on the back of the left sleeve, a board burn with red paint transfer on the right rear tail, faint red paint transfer on the right sleeve and a black mark low on the right sleeve. There is an outline and staining where the nameplate was removed from the back.
