This was my original Duffers' jersey. The following account came from Jim "the King" Miceli: "Rich Schoenberger  was playing with us on Sunday mornings. When I was complaining about all the different color jerseys Rich mentioned he had some old cotton practice football jerseys at his shop. When he said they would cost us a couple of dollars apiece I immediately perked up. When I called him to get the jerseys Rich said he would put numbers on them and maybe a name like the Downers Grove Duffers, which sounded great to me. While on the phone I was looking at a Blackhawk schedule and asked Rich if he would be able to put the Hamms' bear on the jersey. He said he knew exactly what I was looking at and said, "no problem". The jerseys showed up with Downers Grove on the top the bear in the center and Duffers on the bottom. I thought it was great. We got away from the traditional rat-hockey multicolored jerseys almost from the very beginning."

When we were playing in the early 1970s, we paid $5 to play each week when we showed up. When The King brought in the Duffer Jerseys, He wanted $6.00 for a pair. I only had $3.00 on me, so I got the blue one pictured above. I don't know who got the Red #9.  I wore number 9 like Bobby Hall during the 1970s, until Bill Giffune came to town and joined the Duffers. He wanted number 9, so  I just put another 9 and became 99. maybe Gretzky copied off of me I don't know.😜
