While many believe Jacques Plante was the first goaltender to wear a mask, it was actually Clint Benedict almost thirty years prior who donned the first facial protection. With the emergence of masks throughout the early 70's, style generally came into play, and many memorable deigns were worn. This super cool framed and signed poster illustrates some of the best examples hockey has seen. Masks and autographs here include Glenn Hall, Johnny Bower, Gerry Cheevers and Gilles Gratton.
With a total of 12 masks and signatures on this framed poster, it screams vintage hockey. Included are Gilles Gilbert, Denis Herron, Rogie Vachon, Mike Palmateer and Eddie Giacomin, Doug Favell, Cesare Maniago and Eddie Johnston. All autographs have been penned in silver sharpie, and they project beautifully against the black background. A Classic Authentic COA will accompany this signed and framed poster.
