The stirring scene the night the Montreal Forum closed its doors March 11th 1996, Maurice Richard received a long and thunderous standing ovation that sent shivers down the spines of all those present, bringing tears to the icon's eyes. This photo from the event has been signed by the timeless legend. At just under 16” x 20”, the glossy stock photo features ice level at the Forum, with countless Habs heroes pictured amid a muted crowd. Maurice has added a perfect gold-coloured signature near his image, with the photographer adding his initials and date the photo was signed in the bottom right, along with a limited-edition number of 73/100. An LOA from Classic Auctions will accompany.
The photo remains in excellent condition, with a slightly wavy top and bottom border, most likely from the photo developing process.
