Wayne Gretzky’s junior team in Sault Ste. Marie has really cool roots! This fantastic find is a circa 1950s Soo Greyhounds game-worn wool jersey. It most likely dates from the team’s days from 1951-57 in the Northern Ontario Hockey Association, or when they played in the Ontario Hockey Association Senior A in 1957-58. This red wool wonder measures out to a size 38 with an off-white felt No. 5 sewn on the back. Round crest sewn on the front is red and black felt on off-white felt. Game wear includes three team repairs.
There are holes in this vintage wool creation – a pair high on the right sleeve and one near the cuff, another on the right front tail and two more on the left sleeve and cuff – and pinkish marks on the white bands on the sleeves and right front tail that do not diminish this classic hockey jersey’s display. There are also faint light brown stains on the white stripe on the left sleeve.
