Perhaps the best defenseman to ever lace up the skates and patrol a National Hockey League blue line, Bobby Orr would collect a total of eight Norris Trophies as the league’s best defenseman. Presented here is a lot of three signed photo displays of Orr including two versions of “The Goal”. Leading off is a framed behind the net view of Orr’s cup winner that has been signed and personalized by Orr in bold black marker. The signature displays beautifully though a crease to the photograph where Orr has signed is of note. Double matted, the photo measures out to 17 ¾” x 12 ¾” while the framed dimensions are 24 ¼” x 20 ¼”. Contained in a brushed metal frame, wear is found at the bottom left corner. Accompanying it is a signed and framed photo of “The Goal” as seen from in front of the goal line. Housed in a sleek black frame that showcases light wear, the double matted photograph measures 19 ¼” x 15 ¼” and has been signed by Orr in crisp blue marker with the signature displaying with no flaws. Full frame dimensions measure 26 ½” x 22 ½”. Lastly, is a framed and signed Orr display issued by Canada Post. An illustration of Orr measuring approx 11” x 14” is found on the right side of the piece with his signature having been penned in blue ink and displaying without issue. The piece has been serial numbered “1624/1967” in the bottom right corner. The frame also displays Bruins logo pins, an Orr number retirement patch, cards displaying the image as well as Orr’s career stats, a envelope displaying Boston Garden and the Orr stamp while a plaque listing biographical information sits at the bottom. Measuring out to 28” x 24 ½” full framed, the piece displays beautifully while a Canada Post COA is affixed to the reverse of the frame.
