Help with Vintage Jersey

Hi

I picked up this "Bombers" jersey this morning and was wondering if anyone could help me with dating it. The tag says "Empire" and I'm not familiar with this company. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

Empire was a uniform maker in New York. I don't know too much about them, but I believe they produced a lower end product for schools and bar leagues, etc.. All the Empire uniforms I have seen are that type. I have a couple of Empire jerseys with a similar tag as this one, they date to the 50s or 60s. I would say your jersey is about the same period, c. 1960.
