Historical Hockey Memorabilia Auction Winter 2014

Precious and very rare ducat from the legendary 1972 Summit Series is this 5 1/4" x 1 3/4" full ticket to Game 1 of the Canada-Russia showdown at the old Montreal Forum. While those on hand fully expected Team Canada to put on a hockey clinic, it was the Soviets who stunned the NHL pros that fateful September 2 by coming back from an early two-goal deficit to post a 7-3 rout that shocked all of Canada. Game on! An exceptional find as Forum ticket takers would typically tear the full ticket and return a short stub to the patron as they entered. This crease-free beauty is magnificently preserved in essentially clean condition with only a few reddish-brown stains on the reverse that do not diminish its display.
