Historical Hockey Memorabilia Auction June 2018
This lot is closed for bidding. Bidding ended on 6/19/2018
A truly rare autograph, the late Gilles Villeneuve's dedicated signature graces a photo of the Ferrari Formula One racing legend pictured with hockey great Guy Lafleur. Villeneuve placed a bold autograph at the bottom of his blue ballpoint notation in French which reads, "Sincerely, to my friend, the best hockey player" on this 8” x 10” shot of the two Quebec sports legends, which is glued to a cardboard backing and framed to full dimensions of roughly 12 ½” x 14 ½”. Villeneuve won six Formula One races at the wheel of his Ferrari before his life was tragically cut short at the age of 32 when he was killed in a crash during qualifying for the 1982 Belgian Grand Prix. Villeneuve is a member of numerous halls of fame, including Canada's Sports Hall of Fame, the Canadian Motorsport Hall of Fame and the Snowmobile Hall of Fame.
