A rare find indeed, this sensational and especially rare French language CCM advertising display feature’s a vintage team photo of the 1933-34 Montreal Canadiens. French text across the top proclaim’s "Les Patins CCM Sont Champions Partout", while a full colour CCM logo with generic players and crossed hockey sticks add period details, with the black and white photo mounted above. Howie Morenz and Aurele Joliat are pictured on either side of goalie Lorne Chabot seated in the front row of this weathered and creased 7 ½” x 9 ¾” original print, with the names of the Habs’ players listed along the bottom. Sold previously in 2010, this is the only example of this scarce advertising display we have ever offered.
Remaining mostly intact, with a 1 1/4" x 3" section of the lower right corner cut off. The easel on the reverse is missing and pin holes and wear/cracks in the corners and along the edges are also to note. Soiling on the surface is more pronounced on the left side. Overall, this rare piece remains an outstanding collector's item and a great vintage hockey display.
