Two of HOF center Phil Esposito’s sticks are featured in this lot of four Big, Bad Bruins twigs that also include defensemen Don Awrey and the late Carol Vadnais. Espo signed his Victoriaville Pro gamer with “Esposito” stamped on the shaft below his taped knob and a broken blade that is also autographed by fellow HOFer Gerry Cheevers as well as Ken Hodge and one other in pencil. “Esposito” is stamped on his Northland game-issued stick with "7" stamped in red twice high on the shaft which has a 1974 Stanley Cup annotation. Bobby Orr and Gary Doak are among a few pale autographs on the shaft of Vadnais’ Victoriaville Pro with “C Vadnais” stamped on the shaft and his original tape jobs.
“Awrey 26” is stamped below the tape job on the knob of his signed Sher-Wood PMP gamer which also has his tape job on the blade. Annotation on Esposito’s game-issued stick reads, "Stanley Cup 5/19/74, Boston 0 – Philadelphia 1 at Philadelphia" . Phil’s tape job remains on the broken stick blade that accompanies his multi-signed stick. Vadnais’ stick has a handwritten “4'10'73” date on shaft.
