Description: An extemely rare Tuvalu National Rugby jersey from their first ever tournament, the Pacific Games held in Samoa in 2007.
The island nation, with a current population of just 10,000, competed for the first time in this event against established unions. They didn't win any of their 5 matches, but just participating was an achievement and the cornerstone for this Pacific union to build on.
I'm unsure if this is match-worn or a jersey made for fans, but either way it's a stunner and a great one for collectors of small unions.
