Back in late May or early June I went to a few card shows (including one in Edmonton) with the specific purpose of finding a vintage card of Dickie Moore. (two time Art Ross trophy winner as leagues top scorer, and six time Stanley Cup winner.) I needed one to send out for an autograph request. I found a couple of beauties, but they were too expensive and too nice to risk on an auto.


PERFECT! How much? 5 bucks he said... I offered $3, and he took it. Brilliant. A 1960-61 Parkhurst Dickie Moore for $3.
It now looks like this.....
Mr Moore also signed an 8x10 of him in action....as well as a "Tall Boy" card of him when he went slumming to Toronto.
Mr Moore was also kind enough to send a hand written letter back thanking me for my letter.
A real class act.
Now..... who can identify the other two players in the 8x10 with Dickie Moore?
For my Toronto Maple Leafs, Bob Nevin

One of the nicest signatures out there! Great success on a great looking vintage card. That photo ain't too bad either :)
