The Jacques Laperriere Auction - Fall 2008

Wow, this is a fascinating piece of correspondence from Montreal Canadiens history. Habs GM Hart wrote this November 22, 1937 letter to Gagnon on vintage Canadiens letterhead and sent it the same day, as evidenced by the original postmark on the envelope, stamped at 7 p.m. in Montreal and addressed to “Mr Jack Gagnon” in Eastview, Ontario. The upper right corner where the stamp was located has been removed from the 6 ¼” x 3 5/8” envelope. The letterhead indicates the Canadiens’ offices were located in the Hotel Mont Royal and that the team could be reached by telephone at “Marquette 7878”. (We tried calling, but the number has changed.) An absolutely remarkable collectors’ item, especially for Habs fans, with an outstanding Cecil Hart signature . Comes with Lappy's LOA.
