Original autographs from hockey legends Lester Patrick and Ching Johnson appear twice in this incredible lot which features a team-signed photo of the 1926-27 New York Rangers. These treasures come from the collection of Leo Bourgault, a member of the inaugural edition of the Broadway Blueshirts. Johnson, Bill and Bun Cook, Frank Boucher, Patrick and Lorne Chabot are among the members of the first Rangers team who have signed along the bottom of this 8" x 10" team photo, which was mounted on a cardboard backing and had a protective film placed over it as an earlier type of lamination. Johnson signed: "To Leo, With Best Wishes, Ching Johnson 1926-27" on his vintage 10" x 8" photo, which has some water stains in the upper left corner to note. Patrick's original signature appears on a 1947 letter on his Madison Square Garden letterhead to Bourgault, which was also mounted on cardboard with a protective film over it. Comes with an LOA from the Bourgault family.
