Historical Hockey Memorabilia Auction June 2015
This lot is closed for bidding. Bidding ended on 6/17/2015
Precious little 1-cent penny-size pins here picture members of the 1952 Winnipeg Blue Bombers, a squad that went 12-3-1 to take first place in the Western Interprovincial Football Union. Highlights include pins of CFL Hall-of-Famers Jack Jacobs, (’52 team MVP and WIFU Most Outstanding Player), Tom Casey, Bud Grant, Dick Huffman and Buddy Tinsley, as well as head coach George Trafton and Jerry James. Half a dozen have a visible scratch or blemish, but overall, these have survived in impressive collectible condition, with only a Ray Dillon pin needed to make for a scarce and desirable complete set.
The supporting cast includes Neill Armstrong, Dean Bandiera, Lorne Benson, John Brown, Billy Bye, Keith Carpenter, Geoff Crain, Tommy Ford, Norm Hill, Bud Korchak, Ralph McCallister, Jim McPherson, Len Meltzer, Steve Patrick, Keith Pearce, Roger Savoie, Andy Sokol, Tommy Thompson, Ron Vaccher, Kas Vidruk, Smiling Al Wiley and Joe Zaleski. Very cool!
