Historical Hockey Memorabilia Auction Fall 2019
This lot is closed for bidding. Bidding ended on 11/5/2019
Taking place during his lone season in the WHA and on the cusp of ascending to the NHL, we have a photo negative collection of 37, with each depicting moments from Wayne Gretzky’s 18th birthday celebration, on Jan 26, 1979. Hailing from the archives of the Toronto Sun, the 35mm collection includes 32 color negatives and 5 black and white. The majority of the images show Wayne blowing out birthday candles, with both a hockey stick cake and a traditional black forest (yum!). Most of the negatives are in strip form, with a few loose individual images as well.
