Boy, they really don’t make them like this anymore! Absolutely fantastic and coveted for its rarity in the hobby, this gorgeous 1951-52 NHL Dated Events Hockey Map of Canada was issued by Esso and offered to its lucky customers. This nicely preserved treasure features an inset box that notes the Oct. 1951 Maple Leaf Gardens visit by Princess Elizabeth, the future Queen. All set for suitable framing and display, this very large map is wonderfully illustrated with art work by Stanley Turner and Turofsky pictures, including the members of the Stanley Cup champion Maple Leafs, and jam packed with information and details compiled by editor Wes McKnight, the host of Imperial Oil’s Hot Stove League.
A strip of old celluloid tape remains attached to the bottom right edge of the verso. Neither it nor the fold creases diminish the display of this wrinkle-free piece that is nearly 70 years old.
