Historical Hockey Memorabilia Auction Fall 2017
This lot is closed for bidding. Bidding ended on 11/7/2017
A sumptuous offering for the collector of hockey photography, we have an especially large grouping of vintage photos, mostly team-issued examples, with the bulk hailing from the 1970s and early-1980s. The stars of the day are included with Sawchuk, Keon, Bucyk, Vachon, Clarke, Perreault, Robinson, Bossy, the Esposito brothers and more. Over 1000 examples are present, along with the odd team photo or team-issued Christmas card. Highlights include 13 different photos from the 1976 Canada Cup, 15 full-colour photos of individuals posing with the Stanley Cup, 25 St Louis Blues cartoon artworks and a great group of Royal Bank issued Vancouver Canucks photos from the 1970s. The majority of the collection shows just light wear, with the odd example in lower grade. To assemble a comparable group would take both endless time and resources.
The approx. breakdown per team is as follows; NY Rangers – 135, NY Islanders – 55, Montreal – 20, New Jersey – 20, Chicago – 75, Boston – 50, Atlanta/Calgary – 35, California/Cleveland – 25, Detroit – 45, LA – 35, Minnesota – 60, Buffalo – 25, Colorado/Kansas City – 75, Pittsburgh – 55, Philadelphia – 60, St Louis – 85, Toronto – 25, Vancouver – 60, Washington – 25, Winnipeg – 15. There are also a few Vancouver Blazers photos (20) along with a dozen WHA team photos and roughly 35 minor league examples (mostly team photos).
