Historical Hockey Memorabilia Auction Winter 2019
This lot is closed for bidding. Bidding ended on 2/26/2019
Defeating a powerful Soviet squad that won the gold medal in five of the six previous Winter Olympic Games, the Team USA victory in 1980 remains arguably the greatest upset in modern sporting history, with any and all items representing the momentous victory highly coveted. We have a cover from the March 3rd 1980 issue of Sports Illustrated, and it’s been team-signed by members of the famous victorious US team. Picturing a jubilant moment with applauding onlookers, 14 have signed in blue sharpie, including Herb Brooks, Ken Morrow, Jim Craig, Mike Eruzione, Craig Patrick, Bill Baker, Dave Silk, Mark Johnson, Mike Ramsey, Rob McClanahan, Dave Christian and others. A full copy of the issue will accompany the signed cover, along with an LOA from JSA.
The signatures display well with no issues, with just toning and a few small spine creases and surface indentations. The accompanying copy displays heavy toning and spine wear, with a tear to one of the interior pages.
