When Phil Esposito took to the ice during the 1980 NHL All Star Game in Detroit he was witness to hockey history. Gordie Howe made his last NHL All Star appearance on this night as Wayne Gretzky was making his All Star debut. This is Phil’s orange mesh Campbell Conference uniform with white letters spelling out “ESPOSITO” across the back shoulders above the number “77”. Embroidered NHL shields sit on each shoulder with a larger shield on the chest. A constellation of stars rings the waist with a single star on each sleeve. Three tags are sewn into the collar including the Cosby tag, washing instructions and the “54” size tag. Letter of Authenticity.
