Historical Hockey Memorabilia Auction - June 2009
This lot is closed for bidding. Bidding ended on 6/16/2009
Vintage studio mounted collage depicting the historic Renfrew Hockey Team. The Creamery Kings, as they were aptly nicknamed, boasted the cream-of-the-crop talents of Fred "Cyclone" Taylor, Lester and Frank Patrick, Newsy Lalonde, Bert Lindsay, Bobby Rowe and Fred Whitcroft. Each early hockey star and member of Hockey’s Hall of Fame is pictured here, along with the remaining players and team officials, in an individual oval and named below. The photograph itself is 10"x13" in size, matted slightly larger. In excellent condition, as a light water stain does not affect the image. This is the only known example of this presentation-sized photograph.
The beauty of the rare photos featured in this incredible collection of hockey memorabilia is not solely in the eye of the beholder, rather it’s obvious to one and all. The pages that follow are filled with incredible treasures such as original team photos of some of the earliest Stanley Cup champions that speak to the great and broad history of the game. Lovingly fashioned by one of the hobby’s most enthusiastic and determined collectors, the remarkable items offered here for auction include some lots that are subject to a silent reserve. We are confident that this truly historical gathering of hockey artifacts and memorabilia will spark the enthusiasm and passion that drive your desire to seek and acquire nothing short of the best.
