    For my generation, he was undoubtedly the standard by which all others were judged, he and wife Pat were and are a total class act. If ever their was a collector/dealer hall of fame, I would consider him to be the cornerstone of it.
    The Hanratty is also from 1976, road white in which he played his only game, a loss to his former team the Pittsburgh Steelers. I also have his helmet.
    My favorite item in a collection that totals more than 2000 items is a Tampa Bay Buccaneer helmet of Hugh Green.
    I very rarely have overpaid for items that I have in my collection. Others may not see the same value in it but that doesn't affect the way that I feel about it.
    We went about collecting these things a lot differently back then.
    As a sidelight, the person who sold these jerseys I believe spent time in jail for selling them.

    Let me amend two things, Murf and Pat Denny are still very much alive, I think I may have sounded like Mr. Hartel and Mr. Dobbins that they have passed and they have not.
    Also, the person spending time in jail worked for the team and was not the Hartel family.
    Hope that clears it up.

    I was only 1 years old at the time, but would have loved 'em still.

    I was wondering when a jersey from this sale would pop up.... And this one finally did on eBay: http://cgi.ebay.com/Jimmy-DuBose-197...item336a26fdb9


    Quite a beauty!

    A great item...it only stands to reason that a quality seller like BPH would be the ones offering it.

    Just got this awesome jersey from a fellow forum member. I wonder if this is the Giles jersey on that list??

    That Giles is a beauty. If you ever decide to let it go please keep me in mind.

    Is it a Sand Knit or a Wilson? Does anybody have an idea of exactly when the Bucs used Sand Knit? I thought they only used Wilson.

    Glad you like it! It is a Wilson size 48. Jersey has 4 small repairs which was was a nice bonus. My last name is Giles, so this was an interesting pickup for me.

    Hahaha, that's awesome!

    I have a sizable library of sportscard collecting magazines from the late 1970s through late 1980s, and love seeing the GU advertisements. Oddly enough, some of the items sold 30 years ago are worth about the same amount today, while other items are worth considerably more today.

    It's also interesting to wonder how many of those items lost their provenance over the years and wound up in the trash or local thrift shop...
