Where have all the Hockey collectors gone?

It seems that the "Hockey guys" are posting less often lately?

I posted this on another thread, but I'm so thrilled about these items, I figured I'd give them "their own space"!


I just made a deal for this lot of (15) Diamond Match Company of NYC unused match covers of NFL Hockey Players. Most examples are in mint or near mint condition! These items have never been folded or stapled, and have no match strikers, and thus have not been catalogued to my knowledge. They seem to be quite unique.

They are from the 1930s. I was told these unused matchcovers were "salesman's samples", note one of the matchcovers has a "stock number" (i.e., Burt Connolly) hand written where the match striker should be.

I'm exicted about this purchase, and hope you enjoy these ebay scans?

Man those are cool.

Especially the full stand up pics with the grey cover.

I wonder how many there were in total???

I think all the hockey folks are hibernating.

Those are some sweeeeet cards though.
