Historical Hockey Memorabilia Winter 2012
This lot is closed for bidding. Bidding ended on 2/22/2012
Wonderful game-used Wayne Gretzky Titan TPM 2020, gifted from one hockey great to another. The stick, from the collection of Russian coaching legend Anatoli Tarasov, was handled by the Great One during the 1983-84 season according to the "AVR 16 1984" factory date stamp on the back side of the shaft. "W. Gretzky" is stamped up near the handle which is wrapped in aged white over black wrap near a number "99" marked in thick blue marker. The penciled "WG-1" is there at the heel and the stick has had all blade taping removed. We surmise that this one was used during the post-season as the Oilers made the run to their first Stanley Cup victory. Wayne has signed and dedicated this stick in blue marker down low on the shaft: "To Mr. Tarasov, Wayne Gretzky", adding a Russian salutation in between. Comes with a signed letter of provenance from the Tarasov family.
