We have yet to see one shred of proof that they were ever worn in a game during the 1934 season, and we know for a fact that they weren't worn in 8 of the 12 games.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.uni-watch.com/2012/10/27/a-look-at-the-steelers-throwback-uniforms/" rel="nofollow">http://www.uni-watch.com/2012/10/27/a-look-at-the-steelers-throwback-uniforms/</a>Rob Holeckohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09532701130842826214noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2168085657783700524.post-45798038539723888512012-10-29T11:39:14.006-07:002012-10-29T11:39:14.006-07:00Hello,

It appears to be opposite of what you have on the site. In support of your theory though, did they only wear them for the team photo?<br /><br />http://www.collectorsworld.us/viewProduct.asp?pro=10<br /><br />http://www.steelersuk.com/history/thirties/1%20pages/the%20steelers%20beginnings%201.htm<br /><br />Mikerams_lakershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01038582612678866127noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2168085657783700524.post-18975752011806968452012-04-20T20:09:05.898-07:002012-04-20T20:09:05.898-07:00I would take GUD's word that the Steelers refe...I would take GUD's word that the Steelers referenced the wrong uniform.<br /><br />In my own research, I have found the Steelers to be the worst team in the NFL at producing accurate historical facts. Especially pre-1940.<br /><br />If I were to guess, I would say the Steelers probably lost a lot of historical documents when they were sold to Alexis Thompson and almost moved to Boston in 1940. It's the only way I can explain the mistakes in their own published history.Andrew Mhttp://footballgeography.comnoreply@blogger.com
