This lot is closed for bidding. Bidding ended on 12/5/2006
Fantastic lot for you vintage team photo collectors to consider, it has several highlights. A photo of the Canadian Olympic Hockey Team at the 1932 Lake Placid games is 5” by 7”, on thin cardboard stock and sponsored by the Monarch Knitting Company of Dunnville, Ontario. An 8” by 12” shot of a 1940’s Dallas Texans team posed in full uniform but with shoes and not skates alongside the team bus is a cool one, as is a 5” by 7” taken of the Trail Smoke Eaters and Mike Butka when they were in Czechoslovakia. U.S. college hockey is represented by a photo of the ’29-30 Brown University squad and a circa 1940’s pic of Yale’s team. A photo of the 1921 Westinghouse High School team is joined by four photos with mats; 1923 Smith Foundry team (winners of Fredericton, NB Commercial League and of the Chestnut Cup), ’26-27 Drinkwater team (Intermediate Champions of Southern Saskatchewan), 1929 Montreal Manufacturers League Champions (with “Frigidaire” across their sweaters) and the ‘31-32 Arthabaska team (champs of the Bois-Francs league). Mostly unidentified photos among the other ten, with the exception of a 1907-08 photo of the University of Toronto team taken from a school yearbook. Five miscellaneous reproduction team photos are also tossed onto the pile, making for an overall fascinating visual trip back in time.
