Historical Hockey Memorabilia Auction Fall 2018
This lot is closed for bidding. Bidding ended on 11/6/2018
Known affectionately as The China Wall, legendary netminder Johnny Bower spent a quarter-century in professional hockey, most notably backstopping the Maple Leafs to four Stanley Cup championships. We have a wonderful collection of Bower signed items totaling four, with a vintage-style goalie mask and Leafs jersey, Leafs puck and an 8” x 10” photo. The mask was produced by Mikula Masks, with vintage style strapping, with Bower signing across the forehead in blue, adding both “China Wall” and “HOF 76”. The beginning of the signature is somewhat light (Johnny), with a hologram affixed to the interior, with a matching MIkula Masks photo COA to accompany. The jersey is an acrylic CCM creation made to simulate wool with “XL” tagging, along with a wonderful vintage-style felt Leafs team crest with embroidered detailing. Bower has signed to the left of the team crest in blue sharpie, and the signature displays well with minimal bleeding. Next, the 8” x 10” photo is on glossy stock and picture’s the HOFer in his Leafs finery during game action, with an attractive gold signature placed along the top right, with “HOF 76” added. The final item is a signed Leafs puck, with this example produced by Viceroy, with Bower signing over the Leafs logo in gold, again adding his induction year. This lot will be accompanied by an LOA from Classic Auctions.
