Historical Hockey and Sports Memorabilia Auction Fall 2022
This lot is closed for bidding. Bidding ended on 9/20/2022
Fantastic images here are from the February 11, 1971 night when Montreal Canadiens' legend Jean Beliveau joined the very select NHL 500-goal club by deking out North Stars' goaltender Gilles Gilbert. Big Jean's third goal of the game ended up being the winner in a 6-2 victory on Forum ice, the milestone coming at 6:42 of the second period following a drop pass from Phil Roberto, with Frank Mahovlich also assisting. 10 framed 8" by 10" photos are here, including pics of the hero getting congratulated by teammates, with fellow three stars Tremblay and Vachon, and dressing room poses combine for the group. All have been signed beautifully by Mr. Beliveau, who added the "500th Goal" notation to each, as well as the limited-edition number of "2-4." Only four "sets" of these formidable photographs have been produced, with an LOA from Classic Auctions included. We should also note that Mr. Beliveau passed away late in 2014.
