Albersheim's 2015 January Auction
This lot is closed for bidding. Bidding ended on 1/24/2015
Archie Clark was a 4th round selection out of the University of Minnesota in the 1966 NBA Draft after being an All-Big 10 selection as a senior. He would go on to have a solid 10 year career in the NBA with the Los Angeles Lakers, Philadelphia 76ers, Baltimore/Washington Bullets, Seattle Supersonics, and Detroit Pistons. Besides being a 2x NBA All-Star, averaging 16.3 points per game, and 4.8 career assists, he was part of the 1968 trade that sent Wilt Chamberlain to L.A. (Clark went to Philly). Clark was one of the first effective practitioners of the crossover dribble, which inspired his nickname "Shake and Bake."
We offer Clark’s game worn warmup top that matches the style of the 1970-71 76ers. In the back collar is the “Wilson” manufacturers size 44 tag with wash instructions. Below is the player number “21” embroidered tag. On the back is “76” in red tackle twill surrounded by thirteen blue tackle twill stars. The jacket shows wear and appears to have no alterations of any kind.
Awesome representation from the City of Brotherly Love!
