Re: This has potential
Now thats impressive. No yellowing or glue bleeding. are they from newspapers or magazines? Wherever it was, no air was getting to it- a real time capsule!

Re: This has potential
There's a shot of Brodeur's backplate in his Higgins. Does anyone have any front shots of that mask?

Re: This has potential
hehe, I dont know if that was sarcasm Algoon lol, It certainly would not be something to dump a fortune on, but it would be nice to see some of those masks pictured
It looks like a Harrison backplate on Brodeur. There a pictures showing a Quebec goalie (one of the brawl pictures)with what looks like a heavily painted mask, I wonder if tahts Brodeur

Re: This has potential
Nah, I was being sincere. If the pics are indeed newsprint, I really am amazed at how white the images are. And these were shots used for the paper and most likely never printed again so I assume they are very rare.
YEah, I wouldn't break open the college fund for it, but its a neat object.

Re: This has potential
One of my biggest regrets in this hobby - my friend was an absolute WHA fanatic and like me a scrapbook collector. He had no question the finest collection of WHA goalie pics. When he decided to sell his collection - I was broke - I should have beg borrowed or stolen to come up with the funds for his WHA pics!!

Re: This has potential
are any of us still in the running for this?
It is getting pretty rich for my blood but seems like a good trove of stuff.
The current top bidder in Mr. WHA.
Sounds like a fellow after my own heart.

Re: This has potential
wow....very cool scrapbook.
I remember making 2 or 3 giant sized scrapbooks myself as a kid in the late 70s and early 80s...they held newpaper photos/clippings just like the ones in the link...except mine were all NHL material,not WHA...ill have to pull them out and scan a few photos.Im from Pittsburgh so there was alot of Dion pictures.
