Gordie Howe OEP #3

Our fine art photography – originally featured in SPORT Magazine – brings your favourite sporting legends to life in print form! Each image is exclusive to our gallery and stems from the physical negative. 

This Open Edition Print (OEP) features Detroit Red Wings legend Gordie Howe. Nicknamed "Mr. Hockey," Howe is one of the most beloved players in the history of the game. He is still fourth all-time in points, and is one of only two players to have reached 800 goals (the other being Wayne Gretzky, who idolized Howe). Mr. Hockey played for an amazingly long time, spending 25 seasons with the Wings before going to the WHA, and then eventually making it back to the NHL as a 50-year-old with the Whalers.

Production time may take 1-2 weeks as most prints are made to order; please contact us via email (hello@thesportgallery.com) if you need your order rushed. 

Due to the small file size, images featured here may be low quality – the final product will be vivid and sharp.

Quality

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.

All frames are made to order. Framing is done by hand in Toronto and takes 2-5 business days, depending on the timing. We use only the highest archival quality framing materials, from acid-free matting, to conservation glass, to ensure our prints last many lifetimes. We use ArtCare mountboard and matboard, Tru Vue UV-coated conservation glass, and black Roma solid poplar frames from Italy. All of our materials meet museum standards for fade resistance and durability.

Size

OEPs are available in different sizes to suit your space and budget.

Mounting, matting and framing are also to the highest archival standards. Every fine art frame is made in Toronto to order by a local framer. We use ArtCare mountboard and matboard.

Unframed prints ship in a heavy-duty tube to ensure prints are not damaged during shipping. When you receive your print it will appear curled but will flatten out when framed. A tube is the safest way to ship a print. Unframed prints over $100 ship for free within Canada.

Please note that due to the weight and fragility we do not ship framed pieces. We do have a selection of framed prints in stock at our Toronto gallery that are available for pick-up and select postal codes are eligible for local delivery of framed prints. Enter your address at checkout to see if you are eligible.
