Historical Hockey and Sports Memorabilia Auction February 2024
This lot is closed for bidding. Bidding ended on 2/20/2024
Perhaps the greatest player the game of hockey and the National Hockey League has ever seen, Mario Lemieux needs no introduction and during the 1980s and 1990s was the only one capable of holding a candle with the likes of Wayne Gretzky and his greatness. A two-time Stanley Cup champion as a player and inducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame in 1997, offered here is this pair of cards from Upper Deck's 2016-17 Black Diamond release that feature either memorabilia used by or the signature of "Super Mario". Starting with the autograph card, a base signatures offering that is serial numbered "05/25", a monochromatic image of Mario appears at the top of the card while a sticker auto that has been signed by the hockey legend with a silver marker ink signature that displays without issue has been affixed at the bottom. Remaining in excellent condition, light corner wear over both sides, but heaviest on the reverse bottom right point, is worthy of mention. For the memorabilia card, a "Diamond Mine Relics" specimen that is serial numbered "3/5" along the bottom in gold foil, a swatch of wood taken from one of Mario's sticks has been embedded over the front of the card with a photo of him from the late-1990s seen at the left side. Once again in excellent condition, corner wear remains the commonly seen flaw, also found to be heaviest at the bottom right point on the reverse for a second time.
