Babe Siebert was a great hockey player with an even greater heart. The Hall of Famer had an outstanding career. This sepia photo of the 1936-37 Montreal Canadiens marked Siebert's return to the city where it all began. This is one of only a handful of Siebert signatures on a photo known to exist. It was signed only a year before Siebert's life came to a tragic end, a victim of drowning. His is one of the toughest hockey signatures to find. Period! Also signed by 7 Montreal teammates. Signatures average 8/10 but Siebert's is a 9/10. All are in ink. Mounted photo (10-3/8 x 6-5/8") is EX. This photo came from the Crown Brand series.
