A member of the prestigious Triple Gold Club, Henrik Zetterberg spent his entire career in Motor City with the Red Wings, earning the Conn Smythe Trophy while helping Detroit win the Stanley Cup, in 2008. The superstar Swede would also represent his nation throughout his career, winning gold at both the World Championships and Winter Olympics. Offered directly from the Ted Lindsay Foundation with proceeds from this sale to benefit their continued battle against autism, we have a limited-edition print signed by the two-time All-Star. At 18” x 24”, a dapper Zetterberg is pictured in Motown with trusty stick in hand, with a large silver paint pen signature placed over the lower left that displays beautifully but there is a fold mark through the autograph in the print. The limited-edition number of “215/245” has been added to the bottom right, and with just light wear to the print, an LOA will 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.
