Capturing a pair of players that combined to register a total of 3945 points in the National Hockey League over the course of their careers engaged in conversation during the 1996 NHL All-Star Super Skills Competition while wearing their teams uniforms, offered here, we present this Boston Herald photo from that contest which has been encapsulated by PSA and deemed to be an "AUTHENTIC" Type l photograph. A black-and-white image with the captain's resting on their sticks on-ice at Boston's Fleet Center, the host of the 1996 NHL All-Star Game and various other festivities, the image measures roughly 8" x 10" for its effort and remains in excellent condition overall as well. Sporting an affixed Boston Herald staff photo caption slip over the reverse which lists the date ("1/19/96"), photographer (Michael Fein), subject ("All Star Hockey") and what the image shows (Wayne Gretzky and Theoren Fleury), the reverse also sports a pair of handwritten notations in blue ballpoint pen ink listing when the image was used plus a red coloured circular sticker with "85" printed inside it. Encapsulated by PSA in an oversized holder, the holder is found to be in excellent condition as well.
