Exceptional piece of Madison Square Garden history is this “Historical Book”, published for a Gala Music Festival Dec. 20, 1925 and almost identical to one for the first hockey game at the building five days earlier between the Americans and Canadiens (also mentioned on the cover here). The stupendous undertaking of “Tex” Rickard comes through in this fascinating 72-page VG pub measuring 9” by 12”. It does not contain the hockey lineups, Americans’ team photo and schedule like the similar book that sold in our Oct., 2006 auction for over $4000, but we’ll include reproductions of those, along with a repro pre-game photo of the two teams on MSG ice.
