It was after the 1971 season, the same year the Tigers got rid of the numbered helmets (a bad idea IMO).

The pants and headgear were most definitely a yellow-orange hue like Yellow cab or a school bus. They're substantially lighter nowadays.

I can’t believe there isn’t anyone in this thread that that isn’t old enough to remember, 1957 was the last year of the “old gold” uniforms and 1958 the yellow gold pants and helmets began.
