Description

Michigan State Band Jacket, circa 1961. Belonging to Jerry Marshall, an Okemos native, who was a member of the Spartan Marching Band baritone section in the 1960s, and went on to be a noted local broadcaster, voice of Spartan Hockey, and voice of the Spartan Marching Band. His name is stitched into the jacket, as was common practice at the time. It is also a transitional jacket in its design. It is among the earliest jackets with "Michigan State Band" on the back, and in a different format than modern jackets and even slightly later jackets. This jacket also has a label from VanDerVoort's of Lansing. From the Jerry Marshall Estate
