Here’s another Q&A with eBay with some more of their thoughts regarding the company’s new mandatory authentication guarantee for ungraded trading cards valued at $750 and up.
Jerseys worn by the Boston Bruins on the night the franchise retired Willie O’Ree’s number 22 are now at MeiGray Auctions.
O’Ree became the first African-American to compete in an NHL game when he dressed with the Bruins 64 years prior to the date of his jersey retirement on January 18, 1958, against the Montreal Canadiens.
A total of 24 jerseys from the game against the Carolina Hurricanes are up for auction, including those worn by Patrice Bergeron, Brad Marchand, David Pastrnak and Tuukka Rask. Each carries a $250 minimum bid. The auctions will run through Feb. 16.
Despite being legally blind in one eye, O’Ree went on to play one more game that season and 43 during the 1960-61 season before being traded to the Canadiens. He continued his life’s work as a hockey pioneer beyond his playing career. O’Ree was named the NHL’s Diversity Ambassador in 1998, and was inducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame in 2018 in the Builder category.
