This lot is closed for bidding. Bidding ended on 6/21/2024
This amazing early NHL program is from the N.Y. Rangers* very first year. These programs are incredibly rare and seldom offered for sale. This program does have some condition issues. There is some discoloration on the cover and the center pages are loose. It's still an awesome piece that displays nicely.
*George Lewis "Tex" Rickard, president of Madison Square Garden, was awarded an NHL franchise for the 1926–27 season to compete with the New York Americans, who had begun play at the Garden the previous season. The Americans' early success in their inaugural season exceeded expectations, leading Rickard to pursue a second team for the Garden despite promising the Amerks that they were going to be the only hockey team to play there.[4] The new team was quickly nicknamed "Tex's Rangers".
