Historical Hockey Memorabilia Auction June 2016

With sports stars lending their image to tobacco advertising common during the first half of the 20th century, a number of memorable and highly collected ephemera were produced, including this gorgeous Granger tobacco advertising display featuring Black Hawks standout Paul Thompson. At roughly 20” x 35”, the cardboard display features a pipe-smoking Thompson set among rich and vibrant colours. Attractively framed to total dimensions of 27” x 39”, the piece does exhibit some minor issues, including scratches, surface/edge wear and light creasing. Despite these superficial flaws, the display remains visually stunning, with a much greater appearance than it’s technical grade.
