The New York Islanders run of four straight Stanley Cups is well represented in this lot of 18 signed Islanders media guides. Islanders legends Denis Potvin, Bryan Trottier, Mike Bossy, Billy Smith, Clark Gillies, Al Arbour and Bill Torrey were each part of the Long Island dynasty of the early 1980s and they have all signed among the pages of these guides along with fellow HOFer Pat LaFontaine. Among the other great Islanders who have signed are Resch, Tonelli, Nystrom, Goring and Brent Sutter in this collection that runs from 1974-75 to 1991-92. As expected, these multi-signed Islanders media guides exhibit handling with surface wear on the covers of some guides to note.
