Historical Hockey Memorabilia Auction June 2010

Best known for his brilliantly coloured, rousing images of energetic sporting events and athletes, LeRoy Neiman is probably the most popular living artist in the United States. His work, "The Great Gretzky" is the definitive artistic interpretation of hockey's all-time leading scorer. This image captures the essence, movement and grace of Gretzky in vivid tones of blue, red and a myriad of graphic color. This seldom-seen promo poster print, produced in 1981 to market the popular edition of 359 total serigraphs, has been hand-signed at the bottom by LeRoy Neiman and Wayne Gretzky in pencil. It has been preserved in excellent, rolled condition with only some light creases on various areas, and light folds on the lower edge which would be flattened once framed. Poster measures 23"x34", has a superb rookie-era signature of the Great One and displays beautifully.
