Description
62" – Offered here is a vintage Gordie Howe model hockey stick bearing bold “DETROIT RED WINGS” lettering along the shaft and classic period markings including “Tex-N-Wrap, ” “Emoh, ” and “SP1.” This is a professional-style Howe model stick consistent with mid-century Red Wings examples and constructed in traditional laminated wood with reinforced blade wrapping.The stick exhibits strong, honest wear throughout. The blade remains tape-wrapped and shows heavy use including puck marks, abrasions, surface checking, and visible reinforcement consistent with game play. The shaft displays additional scuffing, handling wear, and remnants of tape, all adding to its authentic vintage character and visual appeal.Importantly, while this is a Gordie Howe model stick and presents as a professional-use example, we have no documentation or provenance confirming that this specific stick was personally game-used by Gordie Howe. It is being offered strictly as a Howe model Detroit Red Wings stick, not as a guaranteed Howe game-used example.Gordie Howe remains one of the most iconic figures in hockey history — “Mr. Hockey” — and memorabilia tied to his era continues to be highly sought after. Whether displayed in a Detroit Red Wings collection, a vintage hockey showcase, or alongside other Original Six memorabilia, this is a striking and evocative piece of hockey history.A fantastic opportunity to acquire a well-worn, visually impressive Gordie Howe model stick from the golden era of Red Wings hockey.
