Featuring the ever-popular Blueshirts, we offer a collection of 18 team-signed (15) and game-used (3) New York Rangers sticks from the 1970s (11 of the sticks have been cut half way down the shafts). Included for game-used, and from the mid-1970s, we have a Pat Hickey stick with team signatures, a #2 stick - possibly Pierre Plante (Esposito, Vickers, DeBlois) and Northland stick with signatures (name faded over the upper shaft, with Giacomin, Esposito) all with the original tape in place. There are also Pete Stemkowski (circa 1976-77), Wayne Dillon (circa 1975-76) and Dave Balon (circa 1976-77) issued sticks with team signatures, and a Russian stick with signatures (Tretiak). Next, the cut-down sticks all have labels attached with each year, with each team-signed, including examples from 1971-72 (2, Park, Gilbert), 1972-73 (Giacomin), 1973-74 (Giacomin, Ratelle, Park), 1974-75 (Gaicomin, Ratelle, Park), 1975-76 (2, Giacomin, Park, Esposito, Gilbert), 1976-77 (Gilbert, Esposito), 1978-79 (Espo), and 1979-80. There are also cut-down signed sticks from the 1973 and 1978 All-Star Games (1973 - Giacomin, Park, Savard, Lapointe and Cournoyer. 1978 - Gainey, Clarke, Sittler, Dionne, Bossy). All sticks show heavy wear from improper storage, with most of the shafts darkened. Despite this, many of the signatures are still easily legible.
