This beautiful red framed and matted poster measures 22" X 28". The poster itself has been folded in quarters. The folds show, but do not detract from the beauty of the poster. The poster is 14" X 20". It is in very good condition. The poster started out as a folded insert, contained in a record album of the most famous series in hockey history. The owner of this poster then took it all over Canada to obtain the forty autographs on the poster. It represents a piece of Canadian folk art as well as a piece of Canadian hockey history. The autographs are of players, coaches, trainers and management. The autographs rate between 6 and 9. The autograph of Bobby Orr rates at least a 7+, while the ones of (rare signers) Dryden & Ratelle are both 8's. Bill Goldsworthy, the only deceased member of the team has also signed. There are 16 members of Hockey's Hall Of Fame signed on this poster. This is one of the most complete 1972 pieces known to exist. A list of autographs is available on request.
