An unframed 1961 Australian # 3 jersey worn by winger Jim Lisle. This is an historic jersey for another reason, as it is the first test match in which Australia wore the All Gold jersey - considered now my many to the ‘Traditional’ Wallaby jersey. In fact, from 1929 to 1961, barring two one-off changes in 1937 & 1938, the Wallabies wore a dark green jersey. This change in 1961 was made to avoid a clash with the dark green South Africa jersey. From 1962 the Australians permanently adopted the gold jersey and a tradition was born! Size 40 jersey made by Haworth Knit Glen Iris Melbourne 100% Cotton. Has some mould on collar, cuffs, sleeve and at waist. Dark green plastic # 3 on back (no patch) There are a few silverfish holes down body of jersey. This was a part of the Boet Van Rensburg Collection. Boet’s collection started over 60 years ago when he was a 9-year-old ball boy. His collection has grown to such an extent that a special room has been built to house the collection. Springboks and international players touring the republic, in fact, often frequent his home.
