Presented here is this post card dating to the Rangers inaugural campaign. Measuring approx. 3 ¼” x 5 ¼”, the front shows Ollie Reinikka sporting a snazzy Rangers cardigan sweater with period text over the reverse stating, “This is the New York Rangers sweater”, signed “From Oliver”, his name is also written in ballpoint pen, with a few additional pencil notations added. Reinikka’s entire NHL career would span the 16 games he played with the Blueshirts in 1926-27. The postcard remains in excellent condition with only light surface wear to mention while exhibiting sharp corners and good edges.
