Are these 1962 jerseys originals?

The listings come straight from eBay, so both turn up: jerseys made in 1962 and licensed throwbacks printed recently. Check the maker's tag first.

How do I spot a reproduction 1962 jersey?

A Mitchell & Ness or Hardwood Classics tag means a licensed reproduction. Ask the seller for photos of the neck tag and wash tag, and match the maker to the year. Know the limit of the tag check: counterfeits copy the correct maker tag, so lean on price. Real vintage does not sell far below every comparable listing, and a game-worn jersey priced like a t-shirt is neither.

Original or reproduction?

These are live eBay listings, so "1962" in a title can mean two things: a jersey made in 1962, or a throwback printed last month. The first thing to check is the maker's tag against who was actually making jerseys then.

Not sure what era this is? Pick the detail you can see ›

A Mitchell & Ness or Hardwood Classics tag means a licensed reproduction. A fine gift, not a 1962 original.
Ask the seller for photos of the neck tag and the wash tag. Logos, fonts and fabric should match the era.
The tag check has a limit: counterfeits copy the correct maker tag too. Price is the signal that scales. Real vintage doesn't sell far below every comparable listing, and a game-worn jersey priced like a t-shirt is neither.
The Era originals filter above hides listings that are newly made by their own description: multi-size runs, custom name and number offers, reproduction brands. What survives isn't guaranteed original. A one-off fake in a single size with the right tag passes every check a listing allows, which is exactly why seller photos and feedback still matter.
