Historical Hockey and Sports Memorabilia Auction November 2024
Great piece from the personal collection of Phil Esposito is this rare printer’s proof of a fabulous lithograph bearing the signature of seven Boston Bruins legends. Some of the all-time greatest Bruins are captured in this fantastic limited-edition work created by artist Paul Madden, who has also signed. Titled “The Bruins”, with this appearing at the top of the piece in black script, this attractive 18” x 39” print has been signed by seven (7) Hall of Fame inductees including Gerry Cheevers (inducted 1985), Milt Schmidt (inducted 1961 – D. 2017), Phil Esposito (inducted 1984), Bobby Orr (inducted 1979), John Bucyk (inducted 1981), Woody Dumart (inducted 1992 – D. 2001) and Fern Flaman (inducted 1990 – D. 2012). All have added flawless signatures in blue sharpie beneath their respective images, while the artist has signed over the lower right in pencil. The printer’s proof “PP” notation is in matching blue ink near the bottom left of the piece. The desirable artwork is a prime candidate for framing as it remains in overall excellent condition with very light wear/dings/bends/creases to the edges and a tiny reddish-brown spot adjacent to Schmidt’s signature that does not diminish its display. An LOA signed by Phil Esposito will accompany this magnificent artwork.
