Historical Hockey Memorabilia Spring 2012

Outstanding example of Roy "Shrimp" Worters' rookie card here was slabbed years ago by PSA and sits in an early company holder, with the label exhibiting the grade that all serious collectors of pre-war material covet - NM-MT 8! This example is one of just three to reach such a lofty mark, with none higher. PSA has examined 28 Worters Ice King RCs over the years. The N.Y. Americans' goalie, just 5'3" and 125 pounds(!), was in his ninth NHL campaign when this treasure was issued by World Wide Gum and had become the first netminder to win the Hart Trophy as league MVP (1928-29), as well as the Vezina Trophy ('30-31), both admirable accomplishments while playing for the lowly Amerks. Gorgeous card is destined for a Hall of Fame-caliber pre-war ensemble.
