In 1934 The St. Lawrence Starch Co. of Pt. Cedit, Ont. offered premium black and white photos of NHL players. Sets were divided into three groups 1934-43, 1944-63 and 1964-67 ( over 1,000 photos). These sets are recognized by the name Bee-Hive photos, due to the syrup product most collectors sent the labels from. This fantastic lot consists of all three sets over 95% complete and in NRMT/MT condition. All photos are mounted on original matting. Featured are such rarities as Dave Mackay, Howie Morentz, Gaye Stewart, Gus Marker, Wally Stanowski, 1944-45 Leafs team photo and the never seen complete set of clothe team patches. All in all, over 950 photos in this once in a lifetime monster collection.
