Description
1983-84 Wayne Gretzky Game Used & Signed Stick -- First Stanley Cup Championship Season! Marvelous game use on this Titan TPM 2020 stick derives from the season that famously saw The Great One record eighty-seven goals and 205 points to claim The Hart Memorial Trophy (MVP), The Art Ross Trophy (top point scorer), The Ted Lindsay Award (Most Outstanding Player) and, most importantly, his first of four Stanley Cup Championships. This season is likewise famous in Gretzky lore for his fifty-one game point streak, and it was remarkably on January 27, 1984--the final game of this unbroken chain--that he made a gift of the subject stick to Fee Waybill, lead singer of the band The Tubes, through mutual friend David Foster, a Grammy Award-winning record producer.The detailed letter from Perry Nelson notes that this stick does not match photography from that game, but the solid game use and "Dec 23 83" date stamp on the shaft provide a near certainty that it was a participant in the late stages of that still-standing record streak. Original tape appears at knob and blade, with "99" written in blue just below a stamped "Gretzky" at upper shaft. Black marker inscription on lower shaft is 9/10 and reads, "To Fee, Health & Happiness, Wayne Gretzky." All writing in Gretzky's hand. Included is a photocopy of a magazine article that references the friendship between Foster and Waybill and their shared love of hockey. LOA from Perry Nelson. LOA from Heritage Auctions. Full LOA from PSA/DNA. Full LOA from Beckett Authentication Services.
