Team Canada 1972 Fully Signed 10 Bobbleheads including Ken Dryden x2
Most of the 10 bobbleheads from Team Canada 1972, I got done either at regular signings or Team Canada 1972 re-unions. I got the custom case done by Ficel who represented the players from team Canada. They would host events for large corporations and have 20 to 30 players show up and have an exclusive item made for them. I went with Sheryn P. COO of Canada's Sports Hall of Fame as her guest.
I was also invited to a few as I had donated around 40 Team Canada 1972 bobbleheads to Ficel to use for the event. I ended up with a whole lot of them as I travelled to a Canadian Tire in Hamilton when a colleague of mine told me that they were clearing them at a great price. At these special events, I was able to get very unique items limited to 200 over the years. (Framed signed 8 CD’s set, Signed 3-Hockey Stick Coat Rack, Signed Photo Plaque Stick Blade, and signed Team Canada Photo in front of Parliament.
I digressed, back to getting Ken to sign my Team Canada Bobblehead. These Bobbleheads are tough enough to sign as I know Mr. Henderson did not enjoy signing them as they were too small. However Ken was able not only to sign the bobblehead but to include To: Wayne.
I was worried as he did sign one for me a couple years earlier. The reason I wanted the second one signed was, I was going through a divorce and thought if I had to split my memorabilia as I offered to, I did not want to give up that signed bobblehead. I did not have to so I now have two Team Canada 1972 Ken Dryden Bobblehead signed To: Wayne. One I keep in my set at home and one I keep in office.
