Historical Hockey Memorabilia Auction Fall 2013

It was the night of April 19, 1947, the Habs were in Toronto for game six of the Stanley Cup finals against the Leafs, and in the end, the boys in blue would come out on top by a score of 2-1 and hoist the precious Stanley Cup for their sixth time. We have the program from that big night and we take it one step further - it's signed on the cover by 22 members of that Leafs team, including Bill Barilko, Turk Broda, Hap Day, Syl Apps, Ted Kennedy, Harry Watson, and 16 more. All but three of the clear and sweet signatures were signed in pen on and around the face of Turk Broda on the cover, with three, including Broda's, just above. The program itself is complete and in nice condition with some corner creasing and a touch of wear on the edges. Awesome. There are actually 23 signatures, with forward Don Metz penning his name twice. Also included in this list of signatures on the program cover are Howie Meeker, Bill Ezinicki, Bud Poile, Gaye Stewart, Joe Klukay, Nick Metz, Vic Lynn, Gus Mortson, Jim Thomson, Gus Bodnar, Garth Boesch, Bob Goldham, Sid Smith, Wally Stanowski, and Tommy Daly. Bill Barilko's signature, like the rest, is clear as a bell.
