Regarded by many to this day as the greatest hockey player to ever lace up a pair of skates, the name Gordie Howe is synonymous with the game loved and played by so many across the world. In a career that spanned over five different decades from 1946-71 and 1973-80, fans and players alike will still find Howe’s name near the top of the all-time leaderboards all these years later. Inducted into the hallowed halls of the Hockey Hall of Fame in 1972, offered here is collection of six (6) patch and jersey card's of "Mr. Hockey" that hail from various Upper Deck hockey releases from 2003-04 to 2005-06. Each picturing Howe during his long career as a member of the Detroit Red Wings and with each card having had swatches of material cut from a jersey worn by Howe embedded into the front, the group is paced by a 2003-04 SP Game Used "Limited Threads" offering that is serial numbered "15/21" in gold foil along the top edge. Also including cardboard from the next calendar year in the form of a 2004-05 Upper Deck Series One "Big Playmakers" ("20/50"), other cards from the same release include an "NHL's Best" (not serial numbered but only fifteen produced according to the checklist) and a "Swatch of Six" (not serial numbered but only fifteen produced according to the checklist). Also including a 2004-05 Upper Deck Ultimate Collection "Ultimate Game Jersey" that is serial numbered "33/75", the group is finished off with a 2005-06 Upper Deck Ultimate Collection "Ultimate Jersey" that carries a serial number of "084/250". All in excellent condition, light corner and edge wear is observed throughout the group that is worth mentioning for accuracy.
