Historical Hockey Memorabilia Auction Winter 2017
This lot is closed for bidding. Bidding ended on 3/8/2017
Originally obtained from the personal collection of Lennart Haggroth, we have his 1962 (gold), 1963 (silver) and 1964 (silver) World Championships medals. A netminder who saw action with the Swedish National Team from 1960 to 1965, Haggroth later tackled alcoholism and drug addiction as a social worker before passing away at his home in the summer of 2016. The 1962 and ’63 examples are identical in size and design at 2 3/8” with a netmider in relief along with the date below. The reverse features a French monogram of the IIHF. The 1964 medal is roughly 2 ½”, with a different generic goalie pictured along with the matching French IIHF monogram on the reverse.
Each medal remains in pleasing condition with wear mostly along edges, including the odd small ding, groove, mark or abrasion.
