Historical Hockey and Sports Memorabilia Auction Spring 2025
Worn on January 2, 2018, during the pre-game warm-up against the Tampa Bay Lightning, this
jersey was part of the Toronto Maple Leafs’ tribute to legendary goaltender Johnny Bower, who
had passed away just a week earlier. As part of the tribute, each player wore a special jersey
featuring “BOWER” on the nameplate and his “1” on the back, honoring the Hall of Fame
netminder’s enduring legacy.
This Adidas size 58+ jersey remains in pristine condition with no signs of wear. Displaying an
Adidas brand tag with “Size 58+” and a “Made in Canada” designation, the inner collar features
the screened Adidas logo alongside the NHL shield, which is heat-pressed onto the collar. The
fight strap on the interior bears a handwritten “15” notation.
On the back, Matt Martin’s large, bold signature is inscribed in blue permanent marker over the
number, with the official hologram affixed directly on the numeral, matching the one listed on the
accompanying team Letter of Authenticity (LOA).
