A golden presentation piece for the one and only Golden Jet, this gorgeous and heavy gold-coloured hockey stick was fittingly presented to legendary superstar Bobby Hull for this monumental 1,000th career goal - a lofty achievement only reached by two others; Wayne Gretzky and Gordie Howe. Full size with the proper left hand curve to symbolize the lumber used by Hull to ply his trade and thrill thousands, a plaque affixed to the frontside blade lists the important particulars including "Bobby Hull 1000th Goal March 11, 1978", "Quebec City, Quebec", "Presented by the World Hockey Association Ben Hatskin, Chairman" and "Howard L. Baldwin, President". Exhibiting light wear along with a few small blemishes, the stick literally shines, and would be the best stick in almost any trophy or important awards collection. The paramount 1000th goal was scored by Hull vs Quebec at 17:25 of the second period, with Barry Long assisting. Hull would also assist in the contest, on a goal scored by Kent Nilsson at 19:34 of the second. This is a unique offering that should not be missed! A signed LOA will accompany from the son of a close friend to Bobby Hull, and please note that copies of the photos used in this listing showing the presentation of the stick will be included.
