The Jacques Laperriere Auction - Fall 2008
This lot is closed for bidding. Bidding ended on 10/21/2008
Scarce “Hockey Canada” rubber crested puck saw action in the historic 1972 Canada-Russia Summit Series. Blank back slug with raised “Made in Canada”, the trademark of the Biltrite company. Extremely difficult to locate as only 50 were produced for the four Canadian games. One of the rarest game pucks in the hobby. This example, caught by a lucky ticket holder in attendance at the fourth game in Vancouver, shows obvious signs of game use with extensive wear to the logo. An amazing memento from the game at which Phil Esposito made his impassioned plea to Canadian hockey fans following the team’s 5-3 loss to the Russians.
