Celtic Football Club
Era
2010-2011 Season
Item Type
Replica or Match-Issue Football Jersey
Condition
Very Good condition. The signatures remain dark and legible against the bright green patterned background, with normal minor wear to the fabric standard for a signed display jersey.
Rarity
Moderately scarce as a complete squad-signed piece from this specific campaign, though team-signed jerseys are regularly produced for charity and fan promotions.
Overall Assessment
A fantastic visual collectible for a Celtic FC fan, offering a snapshot of the 2010/2011 squad with clear, highly visible signatures across a distinctive kit.
Authenticity Assessment
Likely authentic multi-signed team jersey from the specified period, showing natural variance in handwriting styles typical of an in-person or club-organized team signing session.
Signature Style
Multiple individual player autographs utilizing various shorthand signatures, initials, and full surnames across the jersey fabric.
Signature Characteristics
Varied pen pressure and natural flow indicative of multiple different individuals writing quickly across a soft, textured textile surface.
Ink & Medium
Black permanent marker / sharpie applied directly to the synthetic fabric of the football jersey.
Item Description
Nike Celtic FC away or third jersey from the 2010/2011 season, featuring the iconic 'Tennent's' sponsor logo across the chest and heavily covered in multiple black marker signatures from the squad.
Estimated Value
150 USD - 350 USD depending on the specific rostered players who signed (e.g., if key players like Scott Brown or Gary Hooper are included).
Comparison to Known Examples
Consistent with typical hurried team-signing sessions where players sign rapidly in close proximity on the same garment.
Authentication Tips
Compare individual legible glyphs against known exemplars of prominent 2010/2011 Celtic squad members such as Scott Brown, Joe Ledley, and Georgios Samaras.
Certification Recommendation
JSA (James Spence Authentication) or Beckett Authentication Services (BAS) for multi-signed team items.
Red Flags
No significant red flags observed; the distribution and varying handwritings strongly suggest authentic multi-player signing rather than a single-hand forgery attempt.
Provenance Notes
Value is significantly enhanced if accompanied by a certificate of authenticity, team letter, or photographic proof of the squad signing the jersey.
Historical Context
The 2010/2011 season was Neil Lennon's first full season as manager of Celtic, marked by winning the Scottish Cup and a fierce title race.
Market Trends
Stable demand among dedicated Celtic FC supporters and kit collectors, though multi-signed modern jerseys generally hold niche rather than mainstream investment appeal.
Investment Potential
Hold. Primarily a sentimental and display piece for a dedicated fan rather than a high-growth financial investment.
Similar Autographs

Display & Preservation
Best displayed in a UV-protective shadow box frame away from direct sunlight to prevent fading of both the fabric and the black marker ink.
Interesting Facts
The bright green patterned template from the 2010/2011 Nike kit remains a memorable and visually striking design among Celtic supporters.
