Abundant and thoroughly loaded with timeless images of hockey gods, we have an especially large collection of hockey images and photos totaling roughly 2200, ideal for the hockey enthusiast or historian. Featuring approx. 100 vintage photos, the collection is made up of copies of images, with a wide array of players and eras covered, with many rare and hard-to-find images wonderfully reproduced. There are over 650 4” x 6” images, with many quality copies from earlier in the history of the game, including players like Riley Hern, Paddy Moran, Jack Laviolette, Frank Patrick, Jack Adams, Joe Hall, Sprague Cleghorn, Art Ross, Ching Johnson, Howie Morenz and many others. A few of these photos have also been signed, including Denis DeJordy (4), Fleming Mackell (2) and Gump Worsley (2). The original vintage photos in the collection (100) are highlighted by an early image of Bobby Hull, there are also a few Black Hawks photos and a pair of Hull premiums, along with team-issued photos from the 1970s for Philly, Toronto and the Rangers including Salming, Ullman, Clarke, Leach, Hedberg and others. We also have a few additional vintage Red Wings photos, along with the Pittsburgh Hornets, Ottawa Senators (senior league) and NY Rangers. Some of the modern photos include copies of earlier images for players throughout the history of the Habs, Bruins, Black Hawks, Detroit, Maroons, Americans and others, with each photo inscribed, arranged in binders by team. These binders also feature vintage copies of teams from the QSHL including the Montreal Royals, Sherbrooke Saints, Valleyfield Braves, Hull Volants and others. As an added bonus, also included are 1933-34 CCM Brown Border premiums (trimmed) for the Bruins, Amerks and Red Wings, along with 48 Parade Sportive premiums from the 1940s, and a 4” x 5” team-issued photo pack of the Ottawa Nationals from 1972-73 featuring our very own Gilles Gratton. Most of the vintage photos are in low-to-mid-grade, with creases, toning, warping and edge tears present, with the modern copies mostly exhibiting lighter handling wear. The Parade Sportive premiums all remain in pleasing condition with no issues.
