Famously derided as a “Mickey Mouse” operation by Wayne Gretzky in the early 1980s, the New Jersey Devils eventually developed into one of the NHL’s most powerful and respected teams, with a Stanley Cup to their credit by the time the Great One retired and two more Cups soon to follow. Offered here is a collection of 18 multi-signed Devils media guides running from 1982-83, the team’s first season in the Meadowlands, through the 1992-93 season. Devils fan favorite Ken Daneyko is among the 31 players who have signed the inaugural season guide along with Pat Verbeek and Glenn Resch, and the likes of Kirk Muller, Lou Lamoriello, Brendan Shanahan, Sean Burke and Scott Stevens are also featured in this collection. As expected, these multi-signed guides exhibit handling with surface wear on the covers of some guides to note. Each guide is listed chronologically by season followed by the number of signatures and key autographs: 1982-83 (31 incl. Resch, Daneyko & Verbeek), 1982-83 (33 incl. Resch, Daneyko & Verbeek), 1984-85 (incl. Muller, Daneyko, Verbeek & Resch), 1983-84 (33 incl. Verbeek, Daneyko & Resch; note: some detached pages), 1984-85 (40 incl.
