Hailing from the collection of important Miracle on Ice component and Olympic gold medal winner Mark Pavelich, we have an absolutely stunning and rarely seen limited-edition copy of "Gold: a Celebration of the 1980 U.S. Olympic Hockey Team", with this the actual example that was presented to Mr. Pavelich. At a large and imposing 14” x 15”, no expense was spared with the heavy high-quality volume featuring thick pages with full colour images from the tournament, with additional pages near the back featuring the pencil signatures of 20 members of the famous squad, including Baker, Broten, Christian, Craig, Morrow, McClanahan, Eruzione, Pavelich and others. The attractive original case accompanies, and we should note that only 100 copies were produced including 26 lettered copies given to players, with this edition lettered “O”. A signed LOA from Mark Pavelich will be included. Addendum; The book is also signed by Al Michaels, who wrote the introduction, and by President Jimmy Carter who wrote the afterword. It must also be noted that only the 26 lettered copies were signed by Michaels and Carter and that 100 copies total were published with the 74 numbered copies available for sale to the general public not having the aforementioned signatures of Michaels and Carter.
Published by Legacy Editions, a sister imprint of 21st Editions and handcrafted in New England, these wonderful signed books originally sold for $3000.00. With just the lightest amount of handling wear, the book along with its case remain in stunning condition, with the original cardboard outer box also accompanying.
