Historical Hockey Memorabilia Auction Winter 2014
This lot is closed for bidding. Bidding ended on 2/25/2014
Nice lot of Hockey Pictorial and Blueline magazines from the 1950s, with the Hockey Pictorial batch totalling 26 and ranging from 1955 to 1959, while the Blueline mag total comes to 38, from 1954 to 1959, and is as close as can be to the complete 41 issues Blueline produced and includes the magazine's first issue from October 1954. Both batches of Hockey Pictorial and Blueline remain intact with no pages missing and no photos or articles clipped out with scissors, although some covers have small pen markings on them and a few show faint creases, some have stains, and some have the confectionary store stamps on their covers. The Blueline mags, with many featuring the wonderful Tex Coulter illustrated covers, have a couple of issues with handwritten names on pages including the cover of the Oct. 1956 issue, another has a page of handwritten numbers, and the inside back cover of Nov. 1954 has handwritten markings. The Oct. 54 issue has a 1-inch tear on the edge of the cover. Also to mention is the Nov. 1956 issue which has experienced water damage, although the front “Rocket" cover remains in fantastic condition, as does the majority of the inside pages. The Feb. 1959 issue has a series of pages of round stains, as if it was treated as a coaster from time to time.
