Displayed is an early 1970s Ted Lindsay Detroit Red Wings pro model jersey that was specially made for Lindsay to wear in an Old Timers game at Detroit's Olympia Arena. Lindsay, from Ontario, Canada, played 17 seasons in the NHL: Detroit Red Wings (1944-57), Chicago Black Hawks (1957-60 & 1964-65). He was the left-wing on Detroit's famed "Production Line," teaming with fellow Hall of Famers Sid Abel (center) and Gordie Howe (right wing). Even though he was only 5'8" and 163 lbs., Lindsay was nicknamed "Terrible Ted" for his ultra-rough play. In his NHL career, Lindsay had 379 goals, 472 assists and 851 points, with 1,808 penalty minutes. He was a 4-time Stanley Cup winner, and 11-time All-Star, and the winner of the Art Ross Trophy for leading the NHL in scoring in 1949-50, with 78 points.
The offered red jersey has an Olympic manufacturer's tag and size 44 tagging in the collar. "The General" (uniform tailoring) tag is sewn inside the tail left rear tail. It looks as if the Red Wings logo on the front was moved from its original positioning as there are some stray stitch marks that can be seen when the jersey is held to the light. On back, on top is a red sewn-on nameplate, with "LiNDSAY" in sewn-on white lettering. Beneath the player's name is "7" in a white, sewn-on numeral. Each sleeve has a white, sewn-on number "7." The jersey has some loose threads and overall light use, which could be expected in an Old Timers game.
