The WHA's Chicago Cougars pounced on the Windy City at the start of the 1972-73 season. Bob Whitlock's 51-point performance placed him fifth in scoring on the team that year. This original inaugural season Cougars jersey has a red Rawlings size 46 tag and Gunzo's tagging inside the back hem and everything is sewn on including the wonderful and vivid chain-stitched crest. The nameplate holds screened lettering and ghostly thread lines and team repairs appear to the sides, evidence of a former plate which appears to have been slightly larger. Five more team repairs can be found on the arms and shoulders and a few marks and areas of staining also add to the game wear. A perfect example of a shirt from the defunct franchise's inaugural season.
