Historical Hockey Memorabilia Auction October 2016
This lot is closed for bidding. Bidding ended on 11/9/2016
Featuring two of Detroit’s all-time finest, we have a neat little collection of signed memorabilia all pertaining to Hall of Famers Bill Gadsby and Gordie Howe. We have a pair of advertising posters from the hockey school the duo maintained, ten Gadsby signed cheques issued by the school, and a copy of The Grateful Gadsby that has been signed by the iconic pair. The posters are both roughly 13 ½” x 22”, and they have great imagery including portrait shots of both Howe and Gadsby. Produced on thicker stock cardboard by Rex Printing, the bottom left section of each is “bent upwards”, along with, to a lesser degree, the two upper corners. Framing would rectify this minor problem. The cancelled cheques are 3” x 8” and issued to players for their services, and each has been signed by Gadsby, with three dual-signed as they are made out to Bill, a pair have been made out to Jim Peters, 4 to Billy Dea and a single example for $400.00 made out to fellow Hall of Famer Marcel Pronovost. The book is a hard copy example in its original slipcase, and it remains in gorgeous condition. Howe and Gadsby have both signed the title page, and the signatures are flawless.
