David Corzine (6’ 11”, 250 pounds) played college ball at DePaul University and was a durable center for the Chicago Bulls. He played in all 82 games during the 1982-1983, 1993-1984, and 1984-1985 seasons with the team. He appeared in 67 games during the 1985-1986 season. Corzine was the starting center for Michael Jordan during his rookie 1984 season, and this shirt would have witnessed the very first games of his career.
The shirt is manufactured by Rawlings who was the official supplier of the Bulls during the 1982-1986 timeframe of Corzine’s career. “BULLS” and “40” (front & back) are black on red applique. “CORZINE” appears on the reverse in red block applique. The style has been verified as correct be period examples that have been examined by MEARS and available images. The shirt is size 46 and found on the collar on the Rawlings manufacturer’s tags. Shirt shows heavy game wear with minor spotting on the front. A very rare example of a mid-1980s Chicago Bulls game worn jersey. MEARS A9 grade, one point deducted for staining on front of shirt.
