San Francisco Spiders jersey

I no longer have a Spiders replica jersey (sold it years ago) but I still have a picture of it.  The Spiders played in the IHL for one season 1995-96 at the Cow Palace (same arena as the Shamrocks from decade before).


When I had it I was thinking of customizing it as one of my favourite players, who was the player/coach for the team but never did.


Here's a pic of the front and back of a game worn Langway jersey.

On one jersey, hockey, or other online forum (maybe game used universe, maybe somewhere else???) someone had a picture of a prototype for the Spiders numbers.  Apparently they didn't go with this option for the numbers because of the additional cost.



The Spiders were going to move to Victoria, B.C. but the deal fell though due to Victoria not replacing it's aging arena.
