Sodboy13 Posted December 25, 2013 Share Posted December 25, 2013 I was browsing a flickr stream of old Christmas catalogs at work yesterday, and look what I found in the 1980 Sears Wish Book:So, for at least one season, the NASL had a concerted, league-wide merchandising push. Pretty nice quality from the looks of it, too, given that the NFL replica jerseys of the time were basically screenprinted t-shirts.$14.99 for the jerseys, $7.99 for the shorts, $2.99 for the socks, if you were curious.

The_Admiral Posted December 26, 2013 Share Posted December 26, 2013 The Minnesota Kicks look pretty neat. So do the Whitecaps (their design predates the White Sox!). Soccer jerseys can look really cool when they don't have ads for airlines and cell phones front and center. ♫ oh yeah, board goes on, long after the thrill of postin' is gone ♫ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The_Admiral Posted December 26, 2013 Share Posted December 26, 2013 I've always wanted to do a megaconcept of the English Premier League without jersey ads, but then they keep changing the teams every year and I have to start over. ♫ oh yeah, board goes on, long after the thrill of postin' is gone ♫ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tommytimp Posted December 26, 2013 Share Posted December 26, 2013 General Mills was in on the push, too. I got a Rochester Lancers hat by saving prof-of-purchase seals from Kix boxes. The Minnesota Kicks featured in the advertising on the Kix boxes, for both of the obvious reasons.
