Beginning with the hallowed Olympia at 5920 Grand River Avenue, the Detroit Red Wings have called three buildings home since their inception in 1926. After more than half a century, the Red Wings moved from the Olympia to Joe Louis Arena in 1979, followed by a new address at Little Caesars Arena, in 2017. Celebrating Motor City’s venues and featuring players who starred during each building’s tenure, we have a “Home of the Red Wings” print signed by Ted Lindsay, Joey Kocur and Dylan Larkin. Offered directly from the Ted Lindsay Foundation with proceeds from this sale to benefit their continued battle against autism, the 10” x 24” print pictures all three arenas, with Lindsay signing above the Olympia image, Kocur beneath the Joe Louis Arena image and Larkin beneath the Little Caesars Arena image. All three blue sharpie signatures display well with light wear to the print, with an LOA to accompany.
Originally created by the legendary Hall of Fame superstar in 2001 to assist a friend’s child diagnosed with autism, the Ted Lindsay Foundation was established to “support research and educational programs focusing on the cause and management of autism spectrum disorders.” Although Ted sadly left us in 2019, the foundation’s important work has continued, with over 5 million raised from inception through 2020. At the 28th National Philanthropy Day celebration, the Ted Lindsay Foundation received the prestigious “Outstanding Foundation Award” for 2019, from the Greater Detroit Chapter of Association of Fundraising Professionals for demonstrating “outstanding commitment through financial support and through encouragement and motivation to others to take leadership roles in philanthropy and community involvement.” A partial list of programs supported by the Ted Lindsay Foundation include; FAR Therapeutic Arts and Recreation, The Healing Haven-Linking Hands and Hearts, The Courage Awards, Venetian’s Club’s Halloween Party, The Johnson Center, Dutton Farms and For The Kids Foundation.
