Large c. 1952 portrait photograph of young Cleveland Barons goalie, Johnny Bower in uniform. Taken before he played in the NHL, he would become one of the best goalies in the history of the game and this captures him before he had played a game for the Rangers! The photo has a few light creases and a tiny rip at the far right that has been reinforced with tape on the back, but it looks great overall. This is his best early photograph we have ever seen.
