Authentic 1954 Fresno State Football Varsity Jacket

This is a rare opportunity to own an authentic piece of Fresno State history: a true vintage 1954 Fresno State Football varsity jacket, originally worn by Bulldog player Stan Nelson. This jacket isn’t a reproduction or modern throwback — it’s a genuine mid-century team-issued piece, carrying the character, craftsmanship, and unmistakable style of the era. The wool body, leather sleeves, and classic Bulldog lettering are directly from the 1950s program, making it a standout artifact for serious collectors, alumni, and sports historians. Items of this age and provenance almost never surface, especially tied to a named player. Whether displayed, preserved, or worn as a statement piece, this jacket is a one-of-a-kind treasure for anyone who appreciates Fresno State’s rich football legacy. Considering this jacket is literally from 1954, there is a bit of wear and aging obviously. But considering this piece is over 70 years old, its condition is great for its age.
