Historical Hockey Memorabilia Auction June 2018
This lot is closed for bidding. Bidding ended on 6/19/2018
A pair of delectable collectibles related to Montreal's World Wide Gum company's "Ice Kings" issue are on the block here, with a wrapper which wrapped the cards joined by a stirring image of Montreal Canadiens' dynamo Aurele Joliat. The latter is best described as an oversized (7" x 9") card (on cardboard stock), with the premium available to collectors who sent in 50 wrappers to the company. The smaller size trading cards were double-wrapped, with the green and purple glassine affair covering up the inner wrapper that advertised the choice of six different big-size premiums. A few small edge tears affect the multiple-creased outer wrapper here, with creasing also not detracting all that much. The Joliat premium has an attractive crease-free VG-EX appearance but is lowered by minor back damage which you won't be looking at that when this terrific pre-war duo arrives.
