Description
1994-95 Tim Duncan Game Worn Wake Forest Demon Deacons Jersey with Exceptional Provenance & Photo Matched to the NCAA Tournament--22 Rebounds & 8 Blocks! It's not often a photo matched college gamer of a first-tier Hall of Famer comes across the auction block. Tim Duncan played at the highest level in both college and the pros and, as such, is a member of both basketball Halls of Fame.The exemplar offered here dates from The Big Fundamental's 1994-95 sophomore season when he averaged 16.8 points, 12.5 rebounds and 4.2 blocks per game, and was named the NCAA Defensive Player of the Year.
The experts at Resolution Photomatching and Sports Investors Authentication both found Likely Photo Matches to the NCAA East Regional Semi-Final game between Wake Forest and Oklahoma State on March 24, 1995, based on stitch patterns and loose threads on the left and right arm yokes. Duncan was dominating in the game, posting an incredible twenty-two rebounds and eight blocked shots.
Double-ply, home white micro-mesh jersey features an unusual single-ply verso with black ribbed trim decorating the collar and arm openings. "Wake Forest 21" appears across the chest and "21" on the verso, all screened-on in black with gold outlining. Tags include "Designed & Tailored Exclusively for Wake Forest University by Champion 1995" and "Champion 48" in tail with "4" Extra Body Length" on interior side seam.
The jersey is accompanied by exceptional provenance from a Wake Forest employee, which includes a letter of provenance and various supporting items. The letter reads:
"Tim Duncan jersey was acquired during my employment at Wake Forest University in the Athletic Department in 1998. The jersey was worn during Tim Duncan's sophomore basketball season (1994-95). Wake Forest ended the season as the Atlantic Coast Conference Tournament Champions (26-6). Dan Hauser."
The lot also includes 10x9.5" photograph of Duncan versus St. Louis, publicity photograph (7x4.5") and transparency of Duncan, 1996-97 Wake Forest Yearbook, 1996-97 Wake Forest Media Guide, and Duncan facsimile autograph hand-stamp which was created because of the volume of autographs requests which he received. Letter or provenance from Dan Hauser. LOA from Resolution Photomatching. Photo Matching LOA from Sports Investors Authentication.
