Vast lot of 24 signed Detroit Red Wings media guides includes a pair from the early 1970s autographed by the late Gary Bergman, a Team Canada defenceman in the 1972 Summit Series. Longtime Red Wings captain Steve Yzerman’s signature appears frequently in the uninterrupted run of media guides that begins with the 1978-79 season and runs through the 1991-92 Red Wings guide which features the signature of young Russian defenceman Vladimir Konstantinov. As one would expect, these multi-signed guides exhibit handling, with surface wear on the covers of some guides to note.
