Comments :- Please Take Cognisance Of The Fact This Is Not An Original 1970 Celtic Player Issue Or Replica Shirt From That Season But A Lesser Valued Reproduction Garment Made Years Later. I Don't Want Any Fellow Celtic Fan Being Misled On This Very Important Point.
Nor Should Any Viewer Wrongfully Believe This Shirt Was Manufactured Under The ' Score Draw ' Or ' Toffs ' Labels. This Is A Rare, Brand New With Tags, Official, Celtic Merchandise Brand Label Product Depicting A Reproduction 1970 Celtic Home Shirt With The Club Badge Displayed On The Front Left Upper Chest Section.
For Reference Purposes Please Note The Original White Collared Shirt Did Not Display The Club Badge Until Years Later.
Unlike Present Day Celtic FC Retailing, This Shirt Was Placed On Sale To The General Public Within Selected Tesco Retail Stores ( As Confirmed Courtesy Of The Accompanying Swing Tag Label ). Please Don't Ask Me Why The ' Tesco ' Supermarkets Sold The Product As I'm In The Dark As Much As Anyone. Nor Do I Recall Such Events.
Despite Carrying Out Exhaustive Enquiries As To The Exact Year Of Release I Honestly Cannot Pinpoint The Date. The fact That The Swing Tag Label Contains An EAN Number ( European Article Number ) Confirms It Was Later Than 1973. I Would Hazard An Educated Guess At The Release Date At The Late 1990's But Would Certainly Welcome Any Additional Information On The Date Release Subject From Fellow Celtic Shirt Collectors / Fans.
Last But By No Means Least - Some Images Show Scottish Pigeons Flying Through The Bright Blue Scottish Sky Whilst Other Images Clearly Show The Dreaded Scottish Midge. Please Ignore Their Presence In The Images And More Importantly Be Rest Assured I will Not Be Including Either The Pigeons Or The Fearful Midges In The Sale.
