An intriguing trio of Hockey Hall of Famers lead this encapsulated offering, with Goudey's "Sport Kings" multi-sport set featuring 48 cards, four of them hockey subjects. Cards of icons Howie Morenz and Eddie Shore feature wonderful renditions of the stars and have been graded VG 3 by PSA. In 1950, Morenz was voted hockey's most outstanding player for the first half of the 20th century, while Shore won the Hart Trophy as the NHL's most valuable player on four occasions, (including the season before and after these cards were released), a feat never again duplicated, not even by Bobby Orr. Meanwhile, Ace Bailey, the Maple Leafs' player whose career was ended by Shore in a nasty (December, 1933) incident, appears on a card that merited EX-MT 6 recognition. The write-up on the back informs of his fractured skull and his month in the hospital, concluding with "Probably out of professional hockey as a player." Completing the lot is boxing "king" Jack Dempsey and baseball pitcher Carl Hubbell, with VG 3 and Good 2 grades assigned to their respective cards. Fantastic artwork awaits the high bidder here.
