Historical Hockey Memorabilia Auction October 2016
This lot is closed for bidding. Bidding ended on 11/9/2016
Best known for his brilliantly colored, rousing images of energetic sporting events and athletes, LeRoy Neiman is one of the most popular artists in the United States. His work, "The Great Gretzky" is the definitive artistic interpretation of hockey's all-time leading scorer. This image captures the essence, movement and grace of Gretzky in vivid tones of blue, red and a myriad of graphic color. These seldom-seen promo posters total 10, and are printed on thick paper stock. They were produced in 1981 to market the popular edition of 359 total serigraphs, with each measuring roughly 22 ½” x 34 ¾”.
Each example displays extremely well, despite lower technical grades. We have most examples suffering from varying degrees of light water damage along the top portions, along with corner wear and the odd small crease. Each would still display beautifully framed in spite of the listed imperfections.
