Historical Hockey Memorabilia Auction Fall 2014
This lot is closed for bidding. Bidding ended on 11/4/2014
The vintage autographs of Rocket Richard, Doug Harvey, Elmer Lach and Dickie Moore are among the seven Montreal Canadiens HOFers whose autographs are among the 16 members of the Habs whose John Hancock’s appear on the shaft of this early-1950s Habs team-signed stick. Olmstead, Bouchard and Johnson have also signed on the shaft of this “Super Strong ‘Pro’ Special” with the black ink autographs arrayed on either side of the Raymond Hardware stamp on the other side of the shaft. Dating from the 1951-52 to 1953-54 time frame, this team-signed treasure was varnished to cover the autographs, with Richard’s standing out as the boldest.
St. Laurent, McNeil, Curry, Masnick, Gamble, Mosdell, Mazur and Mackay are among the other Habs who have signed.
There is some scribbling and notations on the lower portions of both sides of the shaft. A vintage black tape knob remains and tape was removed from the blade, which has a wood slat at the heel that has opened a gap.
