This lot is closed for bidding. Bidding ended on 10/21/2008
Well documented Gretzky game used stick from the start of the 1981-82 season that Wayne used to score two goals AND a pair of assists! The attached brass plate reads, in full “Archbishop O’Leary Council 4570. Annual Wild Game Dinner. Donated by Wayne Gretzky For Pennies For Heaven” and the proclamation “This stick scored 2 goals and two assists against Vancouver Canucks, Nov. 21, 1981.” Wow! The Titan TPM model is factory dated “Oct 6, 1981” on the back and has the stamped “W.Gretzky” below the creamy white taped knob. “99” is marked at the top and again at the bottom of the shaft and the blade has a partial tape job remaining and evidence of more tape that is now missing. The handcrafted frame display that houses this historic stick has two tiny screws at the back that secure the twig to the pillow-soft blue fabric. A wonderful game used Titan “goal stick” from Wayne’s third NHL season with perfect provenance. [red]Addendum; Please note that this stick was also autographed in 1981 by Wayne Gretzky on the white tape on the knob.[/red]
