This piece of Nostalgia for anyone Tom Banks, Sr. Who was the head football coach during 1957 for this player, McGraw, all star guard at John Carroll Catholic High School in Birmingham, Alabama.
1950s Letterman Jacket in beautiful condition for its age. It has normal wear and it is wearable as it is. The jacket has not been dry cleaned by me as to retain it\'s original condition and provenance.
The inside identification tag indicates \"J. McGraw\" who was an all star 1957 Guard during Tom Banks. SR. coaching years. See stats in pictures.
Amazing piece of Birmingham. Alabama history and nostalgia.
