Back before Aaron Rodgers was leading the Packers to Super Bowl titles, Hall of Fame running back and defensive back Larry Craig guided Green Bay to two NFL championships, perhaps while sporting this very game-worn jersey from the 1940s. 100% original and in great condition, the uniform bears Craig's number 54 on the front and back in gold while an O'Shea Knitting Mill tag is in the collar. There's a Size 44 tag sewn inside the crotch piece. There's nice use and evidence of several team repairs. In short, this is one of the nicest vintage football jerseys that you will ever lay eyes on. A six-time All-Pro, Craig holds the dubious distinction of being one of the first two players fined by the NFL league office for fighting.
