1999 Wayne Gretzky game-issued autographed stick. "The Great One" signed the blade of this Hespeler Pro stick in black ink. He wrote, "With Thanks, Wayne Gretzky, 99, 1999." "GRETZKY" is printed on the shaft of the stick. The butt-end of the stick is taped. Gretzky used this model of hockey sticks in games. This particular stick though shows no sign of use. 1999 was the last year of Gretzky's legendary career, and Gretzky-related memorabilia from that year is highly desirable among collectors.
