Historical Hockey and Sports Memorabilia Auction September 2023
This lot is closed for bidding. Bidding ended on 9/19/2023
While not much can be found about the team, it is possible that Winnipeg's St Vital Colts were associated with the St Vital Mustangs, a team that recently celebrated it's 75th anniversary. We offer a 1966 Colts team jacket, 1960s Cooper Weeks helmet and 1960s National football jersey. The helmet and jacket were found together, so it can be assumed they were used by the same player, while the jersey was not, and is just a matching era/colour specimen. The red satin jacket with black and white trim has Metro Sporting Goods labeling (Selkirk Ave), with "St Vital Colts 1966" embroidered to the right breast, along with chenille "40" to the right sleeve and "Centre" to the left. In absolutely beautiful condition, there is just a bit of wear to the sleeve cuffs. The helmet is a Cooper Weeks model in matching colours to the jacket, with the original face guard and the original chin strap and interior harness in place. The helmet shows wear and use, and displays nicely. The jersey is solid red nylon, with "National" labeling and "XL" sizing. It sports long cuffs, with "70" in greyish vinyl numerals heat pressed to the front and verso. The jersey shows wear but no obtrusive marks or damage. Overall, a nice 1960s football lot. These items were all found at a Winnipeg flea market over a decade ago.
