Drafted in the first round, second overall by the Vancouver Canucks in the 1970 NHL Amateur Draft, Dale Tallon spent parts of his ten-year NHL career with the Canucks, the Black Hawks, and the Pittsburgh Penguins. This is Dale's game-worn Chicago Black Hawks uniform from 1975-76. The heavy durene knit features a cross-over style neck above the intricately-embroidered Indian head crest and a peek inside reveals the garter-style fight strap common on these mid-70s jerseys. Team repairs can be found throughout and we count at least fifteen of them. Stick marks add to the story of the wear and there are a number of swipes of red board and post paint transfer. The photo-matched shirt shows up in a posed studio photograph and a digital image of Dale wearing this exact jersey will be included. The uniform saw later auction down in Portland with the Winter Hawks after Dale was done with it. At this point, it appears that the alternate's "A" was added to the chest, a small nameplate was added (and later removed) and the original number "19" was removed and re-sewn or replaced. Still, a piece of durene hockey history.
