Item description
Fantastic lot of vintage photos mostly feature Frank Boucher, nephew of the New York Rangers' legend who was a brother of Frank's dad George "Buck" Boucher, if you follow. The less-heralded Frank is pictured in two New York Rovers team photos (one is not shown). One is a '38-39 photo and includes Hall-of-Famer Frank as head coach. The overhead group shot is that of the Philadelphia Ramblers with whom nephew Frank played for in '40-41. It looks like the two on-ice poses feature Frank in his Rovers and Ramblers' uniforms. A head shot of Frank is joined by a smaller vintage photo of uncle Frank in his Rangers' days and a 78 RPM record. It features a CBC interview with 1948 RCAF head coach and Olympic champion Frank Boucher - the younger one! Interesting lot comes from the Boucher family of Ottawa, one of the more famous clans in all of Canada at one time.
