Historical Hockey and Sports Memorabilia Auction December 2022

The oldest and arguably most famous athletic organization in Canada, the Montreal Amateur Athletic Association was founded in 1881, beginning as a confederation of three sporting clubs: The Montreal Snow Shoe Club, The Montreal Bicycle Club, and The Montreal Lacrosse Club. Hockey came into the fray in 1886, with the Montreal AAA winning Stanley Cups in 1893, 1894, 1902 and 1903. Extremely popular during the turn-of-the-century, we offer a trio of Montreal AAA sterling spoons produced by jeweler Birks. All matching in design at just under 5” in length, each spoon sports an attractive and intricate winged-wheel metalwork and floral design - later borrowed by the Detroit Red Wings - with “Birks” and “Sterling” stamped to each reverse stem. The group shows just light wear, with a bit of residue/staining to each spoon along the mid-stem and on two of the dished portions as well.
