Historical Hockey Memorabilia Auction Fall 2013
This lot is closed for bidding. Bidding ended on 11/5/2013
Captivating variety of colorized rotogravure pictures and supplements to Montreal's La Presse French language newspaper are up for grabs here, with a bound volume of complete 24-page sections running from Nov. 3, 1928 to April 27, 1929 featuring 24 sports pictures including 13 of hockey players. HOFers include Nels Stewart, Siebert, Day, Benedict, Dutton, Frank and Buck Boucher and Bun Cook, with the world of baseball (3), boxing (4) and football (2) among the other sports represented. A small tear here and there but overall condition is impressive with bright vivid colors. A riveting (loose) page picturing Georges Vezina has no creases through the image and no trimming, with just two small pieces at the corners missing ? nice! Intriguing is the remainder; all weekend Saturday edition papers from '27-28 which had a hockey pic in them (except Vezina), all '28-29 which included a hockey pic and all '29-30 (only first six issues had a hockey pic in them), although all have four pages missing as the sports pics were removed - otherwise they're complete and ready to entertain.
