Showing extreme humility when describing his first training camp experience with the Winnipeg Jets as an 18 year old, stating "It dawned on me right away that I was only average", superstar Dale Hawerchuk was anything but average throughout his HOF career, and we offer his personal "Signature Series Player's Edition" copy of For the Love of Hockey which contains the interested excerpt. Produced in 1997 by Field of Dreams and the NHLPA, the desirable volume features the personal stories of hockey stars spanning various eras along with the signatures of each of the 92 greats profiled on large colour photo pages. Numbered “040” out of the 100 limited copies, the "Signature Series Players' Edition" set of 100 was produced exclusively for each of the hockey stars who took part in the project. Signers include Hawerchuk (p.77), the Rocket, Beliveau, Orr, Gretzky, Lemieux, Bourque, Roy and many others. Hailing from the personal collection of Dale Hawerchuk, an LOA from his family will accompany.
Wayne Gretzky's signature has an Upper Deck Authenticated holofoil (p.70), which corresponds to a UDA certificate of authenticity attached to his bio. Additional signers include Kelly, Geoffrion, Kurri, Lafleur, Howell, Henderson, Sakic, Fuhr, Fetisov, Stastny, Yzerman, Lindsay, Park, Hasek, Lindros, Sittler, Trottier, Ullman and others. The book remains in gorgeous condition with no issues, and comes in an attractive blue slipcase.
