The final team to join the NHL during the inaugural season in 1917-18, the Toronto franchise was then known simply as the "Blueshirts" or "Torontos". Under the leadership of manager Charlie Querrie and head coach Dick Carroll, the Blueshirts were the first NHL team to hoist the Stanley Cup. Celebrating the franchise's centennial season in 2016-17, we have a framed Leafs jersey signed by 100 past members of the blue and white. A Reebok model framed with the reverse showing, with tackle twill "100", the signatures have all been placed within the numbers in matching Leafs blue, including HOFers Keon, Clark, Gilmour, Pilote, Anderson, Ullman, Sittler, Bower, Salming, Kelly, Gartner, Duff and Belfour, along with Baun, Palmateer, Joseph, Potvin, Vaive, Roberts, Ramage, Williams, Ellis, Olczyk, Bester, Derlago, Harris, McGill, Nevin, Glennie, Muni, Lewicki, Hutchinson, Mirinov, Favel, Chadwick, Macoun, Morrison, Pappin, Hillman, Jeffrey, Osbourne, Eastwood, Krushelnyski, Pelyk, Boutette, Stemkowski, Seiling, Ley, Fergus, McKechnie, Carleton, Primeau, Paiement, Walton, Beaupre, James, Kidd, May, Cullen, Peca, Wamsley and many others! The small signatures do exhibit some bleeding into the material, but display nicely overall. There is a photo of the ice surface at Air Canada Centre (now Scotiabank Arena) beneath the jersey, with a plaque on the left explaining the Leafs origin, and a plaque on the right that lists all 100 signing players. Matted in Leafs blue and framed to full dimensions of approx 34" x 42", an LOA from AJ Sports also listing all 100 signing players is included. We should also mention that due to the size and weight, special shipping arrangements may be required.
While all of our frames are thoroughly and safely packaged for shipping, due to the size and/or weight, and dependent upon the shipping company, we should mention that damage may occur in transit. Please note that as such, we are not responsible for any damage to frames that occurs during shipping.
