Rarely located in quantity, we have an impressive group of 33 NHL Services paperweight and bottle openers from the NHL and other leagues, including 6 that remain in their original boxes. Heavy cast metal, each skate is hand painted in individual team colors, along with a team logo on one side of the heel and an NHL crest on the other. The still boxed examples are for Montreal, California, Minnesota, Washington, Pittsburgh and Atlanta, with the remaining 27 to include the Islanders (2), Bruins (2), Blues (2), Sabres (2), Detroit (2), California (2 – 1 missing team decal), Vancouver, Chicago, Toronto, Atlanta (2 different), Philadelphia, Rangers (2 team decals) and Kansas City for the NHL.
Also included we have examples for the Syracuse Eagles (2 - AHL), Chicago Cougars (WHA) and Michigan State Spartans. There is also a solid silver-coloured example with just NHL logos (1 loose) along with a yellow/black opener with no decals. The boxed examples all remain in high grade, with varying degrees of damage to the boxes including some tears on a few, along with wear/damage to the cellophane. The remaining bottle openers show light to moderate wear, with the odd blemish or mark present. The Flyers and 1 Red Wings example exhibits chipping to the finish, while the LA opener along with 1 of the Sabres examples has some light white paint spotting. The Black Hawks opener has been signed across the base by Bobby Hull, while the Maple Leafs example features a loose team decal. Lastly, one of the Atlanta openers has an after market decal affixed.
