Historical Hockey Memorabilia Auction Spring 2019
This lot is closed for bidding. Bidding ended on 6/18/2019
Sensational encapsulated ensemble on the auction block here stars members of the Montreal Canadiens and Toronto Maple Leafs, the two longtime rivals who would end up clashing in the Stanley Cup finals the season that these cards were pulled from Parkhurst packs. The regular season champion Habs would take out the (fourth place) Leafs in five games to claim their fourth straight Cup title, thus breaking Toronto’s record of three consecutive Cup wins established a decade earlier. The card of Montreal leader Toe Blake leads condition-wise here, meriting NM-MT+ 8.5 recognition at PSA and is joined by 32 other beauties which earned a mark of NM-MT 8. Highlights include card #1-Pulford Comes Close, along with cards of Hall of Fame legends 2-Henri Richard, 8-Moore, 33-Mahovlich, 34-Beliveau, 42-Horton and 48-Armstrong. Other notable 8s are three action cards featuring Jacques Plante, (#s 11, 26, 35) and goalies 12-Chadwick and 17-Hodge, while a fourth Plante action affair, #39-Action around the net, is the lone card with a qualifier (OC). Two cards are slabbed NM+ 7.5; 49-Harvey and the last card, 50-Cullen, while the only SGC-graded contributor is 46-Bower at a similar 86 NM+ 7.5. Fourteen NM 7s complete the booty and include 22-Plante, 28-Geoffrion, 38-Maurice Richard and 16-Backstrom RC. The grades of all other cards not already detailed are available on our website. Admirers and pursuers of quality vintage collectibles will be enthusiastic about this outstanding and inviting opportunity.
