Jerry West. (McFarlane) "The Man behind the franchise"

Literally the face of the NBA. 
when you talk about the franchise. you see the logo, and you see THE MAN!















































Jerry West is one of the pioneers of the NBA as he is the man behind the drive-ing logo.
















I traded this figure from one of the shop owners in GH for a DC Direct Abin Sur and Hasbro Lady Sif action figure. (quite a fair trade considering the acquisition value of my items and the value for me of this figure).


Things i like with old-School NBA:
Great Players.


Great Shoes (not to mention the catchy socks).
in this case Adidas was the brand! (gotta love that retro)






Body-Fitted Jerseys.
before the body fit-muscle shirts, there was simply the body fit jerseys. 

and not to mention the Short-shorts.
you've gotta admit, for a moment in your life, you wore shorts like this.




the retired number 44...





Over all this figure was well made from the very little detail of how old school was. It captured the very sense of Retro basketball. pure simplicity, classic plays and pure heart for the game ...
