Historical Hockey Memorabilia Auction February 2018
This lot is closed for bidding. Bidding ended on 2/27/2018
A rare opportunity, Classic Auctions is pleased to announce yet another partnership with the historic Montreal Canadiens franchise, one that will bring to auction a large and impressive bounty of jerseys fresh from the vast and seldom offered holdings of the storied hockey club. Examples are present from 2006-07 to 2014-15, with both important game-issued and game-worn jerseys offered, with a direct line from the actual player and the Canadiens franchise – to you, our loyal bidders. Each desirable jersey has inventory numbers from the Canadiens, with each to be accompanied by a letter of authenticity on Canadiens letterhead.
A gold medal winner with the Czech Republic at the 2001 World Juniors in Russia, Tomas Pleckanec is currently in his thirteenth season with Montreal. We have a Canadiens jersey worn by Plekanec during the 2007-08 NHL regular season, and it’s been photo-matched. Size “56” tagging appears along the collar with handwritten “1”, with embroidered NHL and Reebok crests on the front and back necklines respectively. Styled with the famous and sacred CH team crest, the white V-neck has been accented with tri-colour tackle twill sleeve and verso numbers, with “Plekanec” across the nameplate in single blue twill. The team patch (A01073) sits on the inside hem, while a hologram numbered “GU11538” affixed to the reverse “4” matches the accompanying LOA from the Canadiens.
A number of fabric pulls are present including over the front, with dark marks over each sleeve and the team crest. There is also a large material-backed team repair over the lower front. Getty Images #77518127 (Oct 18th 2007) and #77830118 (Nov 8th 2007) have both been matched to the big black mark on the team crest.
