Historical Hockey Memorabilia Auction - June 2009
This lot is closed for bidding. Bidding ended on 6/16/2009
The long-defunct St. Louis Eagles were only part of the National Hockey League for one short season in 1934-35. Offered here is a vintage 8 x10" image of the team lined up for an official photograph in their home arena. Condition, sadly, is an issue as the photo is stuck to the accompanying sheet of glass with ancient paper backing. With some staining and browning to mention, we can assure you that the piece is still very presentable and certainly scarce. A competent frame shop can whip you up a display in no time, by incorporating the vintage photograph and glass, as is, into a newer framed presentation.
The beauty of the rare photos featured in this incredible collection of hockey memorabilia is not solely in the eye of the beholder, rather it’s obvious to one and all. The pages that follow are filled with incredible treasures such as original team photos of some of the earliest Stanley Cup champions that speak to the great and broad history of the game. Lovingly fashioned by one of the hobby’s most enthusiastic and determined collectors, the remarkable items offered here for auction include some lots that are subject to a silent reserve. We are confident that this truly historical gathering of hockey artifacts and memorabilia will spark the enthusiasm and passion that drive your desire to seek and acquire nothing short of the best.
