Incredible Montana white mesh is signed on the well-worn numbers with "Russell Athletic [size] 44" tagging. Amazingly, it includes photo evidence of game wear and 1988 LOA from Bronco Hinek, the 49ers Equipment Manager. Worn in the historic 9-11-88 game versus the New York Giants at the Meadowlands. Montana threw a last minute 78-yard touchdown to win the game 20-16, paving the way towards their third Super Bowl Championship. Comes with a videotape of the game showing Montana being pushed to the turf clean and getting back up with the tell-tale white marks that appear on the top of the front's "1". Also includes the white tape used by Hinek to mark the game the jersey was used in, and the Sports Illustrated article showing him wearing the jersey (same white mark). This is the only known road white Montana jersey that can be tied to a game with video & photo evidence and a team letter.
