Close Shave, 1953 (Terry Sawchuk, George Armstrong, Gordie Howe)

LIMITED EDITION FINE ART ARCHIVAL PRINT FROM THE SPORT COLLECTION

Number in Edition: 50

Timing is everything in this classic image, snapped by legendary photographer Harold Barkley the instant after Detroit Red Wing goaltender Terry Sawchuk repelled this Toronto Maple Leaf shot. That’s Leaf George Armstrong in front, and Red Wing Gordie Howe — who would lead Detroit to the Stanley Cup a few months later — swinging up ice.

Each piece is hand titled and numbered, carries The SPORT Collection emboss, and is accompanied by a signed Certificate of Authenticity, which sets out the details of the edition as well as bearing a detailed description of the image. 

Each reproduction is printed on 100% Hahnemuhle cotton rag paper using UltraChrome K3 pigmented inks and produced to the highest standard of archival quality available.
