Historical Hockey Memorabilia Auction Fall 2012
This lot is closed for bidding. Bidding ended on 10/30/2012
Intriguing pieces of Canadiana feature sporting stars of the day and are from a 60-card set, with one card inserted into Dominion Chocolate chocolate bars. Sports represented here include speed-skating, track & field, boxing, swimming, rowing and even bowling, with several duplicates, (seven of #16-boxer Vic Foley!) and 19 different cards altogether, all encapsulated by SGC. No chart-toppers though, with VG 3 the highest grade. Six VG 3 cards include #1-Charles Barnes, four of Foley and 36-swimmer George Young. Eight are slabbed Good 2, with another eight at Fair 1.5 and (17) at Poor 1 due to heavy creasing. More difficult to locate than the similar 120-card issue of 1924-25, with additional details on our website. The eight cards at Good 2 include #5-sprinter Florence Bell, three other Foleys, 19-Margaret McBride, 40-Cyril Coaffee, 55-Leila Brooks Potter and 56-Isabella McC. Bond. At Fair 1.5 are #s 1, 5 (2), 30, 40, 49, 56 and 60-bowler Annie Miller, while the group of Poor 1 cards are #s 1, 8 (2), 9, 19, 20 (2), 21, 30, 41 (2), 52 (2), 58, 59, (2) and 60.
