Bob Probert ONE OF A KIND - BIGGEST AUTO Signed DETROIT RED WINGS CCM Jersey NHL

Description

I was lucky enough to have lived a few houses from Probie and be friends with him in his days here in Detroit.  One day I pulled out this CCM jersey that had no name or anything on the back of it, and asked Bob what the BIGGEST autograph he every made was.  He said it was always a normal sized autograph. I got a piece of standard copy paper out and had him try to enlarge it. He practiced a bunch (wish I still had those!). Once he got pretty good I said, now I need you to do it TWICE AS BIG as I jammed a huge piece of cardboard into my jersey and held it down for him.  As you can see, he did a GREAT job.  The P in Probert is almost 8" tall alone!
Bob was the nicest guy and greatest neighbor you could ask for (Dani too).  He played on our Spring league team (see picture) and always had time for the young neighborhood kids out on the lake. He is truly missed. At our boat club, "Bob stories" are still told to this day.
I am moving on from the lake soon, and hitting the road in a motorhome to follow the PGA Tour.  I am selling a few things that I prized for many years, and this is one of them.
The jersey is not in the greatest shape, but every time I wore it to a game (which was pretty often) I had people taking photos of it....a lot of side and the back of my head in shots, trust me. When Bob was still playing for Detroit I wore this in St. Louis, Chicago and even Calgary, and often had guys throwing beers at me!  It is an XL CCM jersey.  It has been through the wash a few times
The newspaper Sports front page is another item shown for provenance. I am selling that too.  See my other items if it is still available....it is not included.  You are only buying the jersey.
RIP Bob.
