Exceedingly scarce and representing one of the NHL’s long defunct and fabled clubs, we have a “Maroons in Cartoons” book from 1930 featuring the Montreal Maroons. At 6” x 9”, the 40-page soft cover booklet contains wonderful full page caricature drawings of team members along with management including Hall of Fame inductees Hooley Smith, Nels Stewart, Clint Benedict and Red Dutton, with a number of interesting period ads throughout. Originally purchased for 25 cents most likely at the concession stand at the Montreal Forum during Maroons games, condition is good, with light wear to the covers and toning to the interior pages, with a fold that runs throughout the entirety. There is also writing on the cover, with a few of the pages near the center detached. Accompanying the rare booklet, we have a 1936-37 Detroit Red Wings program for a match against the Maroons on Jan 24, 1937. Won by the Red Wings 2-1, the fold-out program exhibits a few creases and toning, with a small area of light staining on the reverse cover.
