The all-time leader (shared with Wayne Gretzky) at the All-Star Game for both career goals and goals scored in a single game, Mario Lemieux was a five-time NHL First All-Star Team selection, with All-Star MVP accolades occurring in 1985, 1988 and 1990. The 41st edition of the National Hockey League's midseason specticle, held on January 21st, 1990 at Mellon Arena in Pittsburgh, and won by the Wales Conference by a score of 12-7, offered here is this limited-edition framed lithograph by Bernie Fuchs that depicts a scene from the contest that features hometown superstar, Mario Lemieux. A fabulous offering done by famed sports artist, Bernie Fuchs, that is framed to full dimensions of approximately 35" x 42", the piece displays seven (7) major players from the contest including of course Lemieux, as well as Mark Messier, Steve Yzerman, Wayne Gretzky, Patrick Roy, Ray Bourque and Pat LaFontaine. Serial numbered "202/750" at the bottom left hand corner and signed by both Lemieux as well as Fuchs along the bottom with signatures that display without issue, facsimile signatures of Lemieux and the rest of the featured players appear along the top edge also. Displayed under red, black and white coloured mattes and housed in a simple black coloured frame that shows some wear to the corners and edges that are worth noting for accuracy, there are also some tears to the paper backing on the reverse side of the frame. A Classic Auctions LOA will accompany the piece.
