Historical Hockey and Sports Memorabilia Auction September 2023
This lot is closed for bidding. Bidding ended on 9/19/2023
Quite possibly the greatest defenseman to ever play in the National Hockey League despite his relatively short career, Bobby Orr would win eight straight Norris Trophy’s and lead the Boston Bruins to two Stanley Cups. Offered here, this collection of Orr memorabilia hailing from the height of his career as a member of the Bruins. Leading off, we have three (3) sealed packs of the 1972-73 Letraset Hockey Transfers with one including one of Orr on its interior. Similar to the Post Cereal Action Transfers and from the same 1972-73 season, a youngster back in the day could, by rubbing the transfer sheet, affix the pictures of the players to the paper rink and complete the hockey scene. Featuring one with Orr as well as Dallas Smith and Walt McKechnie, the two other packs are #9 with Plante, Baun and Ecclestone and #15 with Richard, Lemaire and Cournoyer with all three (3) sealed and fully intact with some warping and rippling to be aware of. Additionally, also included is one of the Post branded Orr transfers from the same season, with the one present being #1 in the set depicting "defence" with Orr and Garry Unger that remains in excellent condition. For the rest of the lot, a 1970-71 Post mini stick of Orr that still has the puck attached at the top and the decals remaining in good condition despite some light toning to the ones on the blade. Lastly, are five (5) plastic coins from the 1995-96 Parkhurst set that depict Orr at different times throughout his career that remain in excellent condition with light handling wear as well as a 1968-69 Shirriff coin of Orr that presents in the EX to EX-MT condition.
